The Lady's Not for Burning by Christopher Fry
Part of a series designed to provide an introduction to the great English poets and playwrights, this edition features the complete text of Christopher Fry's comic play. It has been set for A-level by the University of London Schools Examination Board.Arthur Hammond Harris, Christopher Fry's father, was born in 1907. After a brief spell as a teacher, he changed his name to Christopher Fry and played in a variety of theater roles during the 1930s. In the one-act play A Phoenix Too Frequent and the full-length drama The Firstborn (both 1946), he began to establish himself as a poetic dramatist after WWII. But, in 1948, he had his biggest hit with The Lady's Not for Burning, which ran for nine months in the West End and is currently resurrected on a regular basis. He went on to write Hollywood screenplays, as well as plays, adaptations, and articles.
