Episode Thirty Five - Sorry, Right Number w/Adam Z. Robinson (Writer, Actor, Theatre-Maker - Haunted, A Christmas Carol, Shivers)

The Constant Reader Podcast - The Canon of Stephen King

We unearth a real curio in the King canon today, as the teleplay for Sorry, Right Number gets a good grilling. Originally filmed as part of the Tales From The Darkside television series, the teleplay was then reproduced in the 1993 short story collection, Nightmares and Dreamscapes. My guest and I discuss how much of this is autobiography, how much a cry for help, and how much just an effective, gut-punch of a tale.

I am joined on the other end of the line by Adam Z Robinson, a multi-talented actor, writer and theatre manager whose work focuses on the supernatural, human relationships and what makes us truly afraid.

His website is here, and you can book tickets to his winter tour here and sign up for his ghost story masterclass, where i will also be in attendance, here.
