From the Guardian:
"...The station [BBC Radio 3] is airing its own adaptation of Giuseppe de Lampedusa's play The Leopard, about changes in Sicilian society during the republic unification of Italy in 1860 through the eyes of an aristocratic family. The drama stars Stanley Townsend and Hayley Atwell..."
The play, which has been adapted by Michael Hastings, will be aired Sunday May 11.
Some more info from the BBC Press Office:
"...The Leopard documents the changes in Sicilian society during the republic unification of Italy in 1860 through the eyes of an aristocratic family headed by Don Fabrizio.
Michael Hastings' new adaptation views the Prince from the prism of his family, servants and his confessor and takes the story to its conclusion 20 years after Don Fabrizio's death..."
