Summary
Published in 1842, Nikolai Gogol’s The Overcoat recounts the sad tale of Akavy Akakievich Bashmachkin, played by Michael Redgrave. An impoverished clerk in St. Petersburg, he saves enough to buy a new overcoat. He is intensely proud of it, yet it leads him only to the grave.
"Theatre Royal" was a groundbreaking series first broadcast in 1953. It starred many leading American and British actors including Lord Olivier in his only radio series.
