Escape Kit
An elderly man and a 14-year-old boy accidentally meet on a train both, in their own way, seeking escape from their normal lives. An unlikely but comic bond ensues.
This is William Thirsk Gaskill's first play for radio, having previously confined himself to short stories.
It's a bitter sweet comedy about two misfits who find solace in each other's dilemmas.
