Destiny by David Edgar
The production of this play established David Edgar as a major playwright, one of the most important of the young generation of dramatists to emerge out of the 'portable' theatre movement of the late sixties.
"'I cannot remember any play that coupled so much urgent topical information with such dramatic force' Times 'Rackingly eloquent and vitally important.. a play that is something more than skilfull and well written. It is one that is actually necessary.' Guardian"
