Radio review - BBC - "The Three Sisters" adapted by Brian Friel

This didn't do it for me. Friel's adaptation is performed by Irish actors complete with accents but still seems to go on forever and it was hard to tell who was who. Around the middle it picked up - less whining, the human stakes increased, it got deeper and better. But it lacks strong narrative drive. I still haven't seen (heard) this done in a way that really touches me.
