Thirty-Minute Theatre

1965–1973 · 8 seasons

A mixed bag of short, talky chamber plays, uneven but often sharply written, rewarding close attention more than casual viewing.

Genres
Drama
Overview
An anthology of short plays shown on BBC Television between 1965 and 1973, used in part at least as a training ground for new writers, on account of its short length, and which therefore attracted many writers who later became well known.
