Description: Based on the life of the star BBC correspondent James Mossman during his last years until his death in 1971, 'The Reporter' tries to find the truth behind his bewildering suicide. Compiled from meticulous research, Nicholas Wright weaves together a portrait of an enigmatic but brilliant man warning, in his introduction to the play, that 'the Jim of my play will be only a shadow of Jim in real life.'
