Fintan O Higgins on the radio

This week's guest will be remembered by regular readers as the beyoncé propositioning poet (watch the vid here) who also once wrote for that show of all shows, "Fair City" (It is strongly rumoured that he was responsible for the unforgettably touching scene where Harry and Delores are putting baby Jessica's clothes away after her death, handled with beautiful sensitivity). He has also written for Emmerdale, has an impressive cv of scriptwriting work done both in theatre and television, and has published several of his award winning poems. He has taken the interesting theme of "The context of Poetry" and works as a freelance dramaturge.
He is bringing a first to the show in that we are going to read a piece from one of his scripts, as in - act it, as in - bring it to life, as in - give ye all a great laugh of a Sunday listening to my pathetic attempt at acting. He'll also be reading some of his great poems and giving us some interesting insights into the world of scriptwriting as well as his views on the context of poetry. Don't forget it's now going to be on at the new, more humane, bat time of 4pm... link on the right to Liffey Sound, and as I said before, for you unco-ordinated bloggers, there'll always still be the aul recording... which you can pick up anytime, until then - take it easy...
