Epitaph for George Dillon

‘Epitaph for George Dillon absorbs and fascinates because it is that rarest of theatrical phenomena, a realistic modern drama which is not bourgeois in its underlying assumptions. It is like a familiar building caught at an angle which suddenly makes it look like something never seen before.’ Harold Hobson, Sunday Times, 1958.

‘Powerful, honest and transfixing.’
Kenneth Tynan, Observer, 1958

Epitaph for George Dillon premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 1958.
