Vicious Circle Huis Clos

Vicious Circle Huis Clos was performed at the Arts Theatre because it was a private theatre, and therefore the only place where a lesbian character was allowed. I read in Alec Guiness's biography that he wasn't a fan of existential theatre but that he was one of the few cast who believed in the setting. 

The cast performed a radio recording of the play which has miraculously survived. I was so pleased to be able to listen to it. It is wonderful to hear Beatrix playing a lesbian character. The whole play is brilliant and well worth a listen. The full thing can be found or downloaded here: https://archive.org/details/NoExithuisClos
