‘Double Dealing’ is a new audio drama I produced broadcast recently. This is another new play in the ongoing series from women writers. There are 2 more episodes still to air and we’ve just received news that we’ve been funded for a second series which will air in 2020.

‘Double Dealing’ by Rose Byrne
Arthur Muldoon is an Irish hypnotist and con-artist, who use his powers to con people. He has a very professional approach to his work. After working in England for a number of years conning rich women, he returns to Dublin because the police are on his trail. His English apprentice, Jamie Watson, joins him from England. Jamie is still learning the ropes but thinks he has it all sussed.

Arthur devises a plan to con the local Bingo hall so he can win the jackpot. But, at Friday’s bingo night all does not go according to plan. It seems Arthur is not the only one playing a double role.
