Anouilh's classic historical tale of conflict between church and
state, in a major new translation by Frederic and Stephen Raphael
In Becket, Anouilh presents the history of England under Henry II
as if it was France under German occupation. As Henry's long-time
political playmate, Thomas's elevation to Archbishop of Canterbury
forces him to sacrifice the love of his leader for his newfound
love of the church: If I become archbishop I shall cease to be your
friend. Becket was first produced at the Theatre Montparnasse in
1959.Witty, intelligent, full of repartee and irreverence...it can
hold an audience spellbound (Financial Times) This new translation
is published to tie in with a production of the play opening at
London's Theatre Royal, Haymarket.
