Originally played by Richard Burton in the London production

__________________________________________________________________________________________

This very funny play was written by Christopher Fry as a satirical look at McCarthyism in the 1950s. It is a story of a girl unjustly accused of witchcraft and a soldier of fortune who is tired of life. Set in 1400 (or thereabouts!) it is written in beautiful language, yet still very funny. This season is to run from 9-24 July 2010 at Stirling Theatre, Innaloo.

“A poetic fantasy of rare splendour and delight....A work of magical humour and deep beauty.” -- Herald, Tribune.

"...as a satirical look at McCarthyism in the 1950s."

Can't have been. The play was written in 1948 before McCarthy reared his ugly head.

Yes the play was written in 48

McCarthyism lasted well into the 50's
