Terence Rattigan, the playwright, has given his plays dramatic interest and his theme dramatic illumination by providing two distinctively different pairs of leading characters for each play. In "Table By the Window" the problem is given focus by a divorced couple one of whom has loved too much and the other who has loved too little. In "Table Number Seven" the emphasis is directed by the same two actors who assume new roles to play a fearful, mother-dominated spinster and a pompous but lonely retired army officer. These four characters play out a climactic bit of their lives among others who are also marked by their need for love. At 49, Rattigan is one of England's most able playwrights. He has written such plays as The Winslow Boy, The Sleeping Prince and The Browning Version among many more. Art Exhibition—Japanese Prints, for sale, gallery of the Fine Arts Building.

Puccini CHARLOTTE PAGE HYMN And did those feet in ancient time Walk upon England's mountains green? And was the holy Lamb of God On England's pleasant pastures seen? And did the countenance divine Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Jerusalem builded here Among those dark satanic mills? Bring me my bow of burning gold! Bring me my arrows of desire! Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold! Bring me my chariot of fire! I will not cease from mental fight, Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand, Till we have built Jerusalem In England's green and pleasant land. ADDRESS ‘The Final Test’ SIR RONALD HARWOOD, CBE 2 HYMN I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above, Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love: The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test, That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best; The love that never falters, the love that pays the price, The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.

Despite the Prime Minister’s attempt to limit its impact, the conflict set in train transformations that meant Britain would never be the same again. Whether the Second World War was the great discontinuity some historians claim – and the precise extent to which it radicalized the country – remain moot questions, but it undoubtedly changed many people’s lives and made some question how they had been governed before the conflict.1 The war also paved the way for Labour’s 1945 general election victory, one underpinned by the party’s claim that through a welfare state, the nationalization of key industries and extensive government planning it could make Britain a more equal society. The key political moment of the war came in late May and early June 1940 when Allied troops were evacuated from the beaches of Dunkirk. The fall of France soon followed, meaning Britain stood alone against Hitler’s forces and became vulnerable to invasion for the first time since Napoleon dominated Europe.

  • The Browning Version's and Classical Greek
    THE BROWNING VERSION'S AND CLASSICAL GREEK "TAPLOW. It's for you, Sir."* Thomas G. Palaima On November 29, 1946 British playwright Terence Rattigan, age thirty­ five, finished )'Vriting a one-act play of eighty manuscript pages. He had completed the play in a mere 'seven writing days'. 1 It represented a rad­ ical departure for Rattigan, and indeed for contemporary British theater. Rattigan's new play for the London stage, The Browning Version, adhered to classical strictures about unity of time, place, and action and emp\oyed what one critic calls a "classically severe sequence of scenes". 2 Like a Greek tragedy, Rattigan's play concentrates on the fate of its protagonist, Andrew Crocker-Harris. It reveals his personal tragedy by bringing a clas­ sically small number of other characters, six to be exact, on and off a single stage set, the sitting room of the Crocker-Harris's flat at a Public School in the South of England, between approximately 6:30 and 7:45 PM on a single evening in late July. The Browning Version is a masterful rendering of personal, professional and emotional failure, "a study of a man in the final days of his life at a public school. His past is revealed to the audi­ ence by a series of well-timed entrances and exits of the student [named Taplow], the [wife's] lover [science master Frank Hunter], the headmaster, the Clytemnaestra-like wife [Millie], and the new master [Mr. Gilbert and his wife]". 3 We should say that the present of Andrew Crocker-Harris is revealed in the same way, and his full future as a human being-he is only forty years old and for reasons of ill health is retiring, without pension, to a far less prestigious position at a "crammer's" -is, in the original playscript, intentionally left uncertain.

  • 18 May, 2016 the DEEP BLUE SEA Lyttelton Theatre Previews from 1 June, Press Night 8 June, Final Performance 21 September
    18 May, 2016 THE DEEP BLUE SEA Lyttelton Theatre Previews from 1 June, Press Night 8 June, final performance 21 September. On Wednesday 8 June, Terence Rattigan’s play, THE DEEP BLUE SEA directed by Carrie Cracknell opens in the Lyttelton Theatre. The production will have set designs by Tom Scutt, lighting by Guy Hoare, music by Stuart Earl, sound by Peter Rice and movement direction by Polly Bennett. Helen McCrory plays Hester Collyer; the full cast is James Alper, Marion Bailey, Katy Brittain, Tom Burke (Freddie Page), Hubert Burton, Adetomiwa Edun, Elsie Fallon, Nick Figgis, Nick Fletcher, Yolanda Kettle, Andrew Lewis, and Peter Sullivan. Helen McCrory and Carrie Cracknell reunite following the acclaimed Medea in 2014. A flat in Ladbroke Grove, West London. 1952. When Hester Collyer is found by her neighbours in the aftermath of a failed suicide attempt, the story of her tempestuous affair with Freddie Page, a former RAF pilot and the breakdown of her marriage to a High Court Judge begins to emerge. With it comes a portrait of need, loneliness and long-repressed passion. Behind the fragile veneer of post-war civility burns a brutal sense of loss and longing. Terence Rattigan was one of the most influential playwrights of the mid-20th century. His plays included The Winslow Boy, The Browning Version, Separate Tables, Flare Path and After the Dance which was produced at the NT in 2011 (Olivier award for best revival). He is still the only playwright who has had two straight plays run for over a thousand performances in London’s West End simultaneously.

Left the security of the well respected judge, for wild, unpredictable, sexy Freddie – an ex-fighter pilot. Now she’s reached the end of the line. Freddie’s raffish charm has worn thin and Hester is forced to face the reality of life with a man who doesn’t want to be with her. The simple act of a forgotten birthday pushes her to desperation point and to facing a future that offers no easy resolutions. Rattigan’s reputation was founded on his mastery of the ‘well made play’. Now, one hundred years after his birth, it is his skilful creation of troubled, emotional characters that has brought audiences and critics alike to re-visit his plays with renewed appreciation.
