Period Drama Jean Anouilh, Translated by Lucienne Hill 24 m, 4 f (doubling possible).
Ints./exts.
Winner of the 'Tony' and Critic's Circle Awards as Best Play of the Season and later an acclaimed film starring Richard Burton and Peter O'Toole. Never have Anouilh's characteristic intelligence and irony been employed with more telling effect than in this drama of the tragic relationship between the King Henry of England and the introspective intellectual who had been his dearest friend, but who became his implacable enemy when intrigue raised him to the hierarchy of the church. Produced to great acclaim in London, New York and Paris. "Anouilh's finest play since Antigone...Splendid."-London Times "Fine craftsmanship...One of the finest feats of the kind."-Daily Telegraph
