John Peel's Shed

The Old Market, Hove
Thursday 23rd February 2012

Following its five-star, complete sell-out run at the Edinburgh Festival 2011 comes John Osborne's debut storytelling hour. As broadcast on BBC Radio 4.

In 2002, John Osborne won a competition on John Peel's Radio 1 show. His prize was a box of records that took 8 years to listen to. This is an ode to radio, those records and anyone who's ever sought solace in wireless.

Inspired by Osborne's acclaimed book Radio Head (BBC Radio 4's Book of The Week) and script edited by Joe Dunthorne (writer of Submarine), it tells the story of what happened when John decided to listen to a different radio station every day, all day, for a month.

His true story journey took him from data entry at Anglia Windows, via interviewing radio greats such as Nicholas Parsons and Mark Radcliffe; to presenting his own local radio show.
