Join our comedy team for a satirical, spooky treat for Hop tu Naa. 

The Railway Children, a new radio drama adapted from and based on the much loved novel and film. Featuring an all-Island cast and produced by Bob Harrison for Manx Radio.  

These short plays, produced by Manx National Heritage, are based upon some very engaging and little known stories discovered within the Dukes of Atholl archive. They relate to the Atholls’ administration  of the Isle of Man between 1736 and 1830. The Dukes of Atholl archive is currently being catalogued at the Manx Museum, with papers dating from 1630-1839. The plays were written and performed by Labyrinth: History in Action players. 

A theatre of the mind, painting aural snapshots of a remembered Manxness from another time
