Requiem and its Maquettes

Requiem

OUT OF PRINT

Francis Warner’s trilogy Requiem is widely acknowledged to be perhaps the finest theatrical text of the 1970s: it is certainly the most original. Here it is issued with an introduction by Tim Prentki.

‘The author of Requiem is a master of pictorial appeal touched with an edge of poetic trenchancy . . . marking him out as the most remarkable of those dramatists of our time who have striven to push the limits of theatre beyond their age-old limits. His plays have, by daring appeal to the realms of music and physiology, considerably widened the area of sensibility of those properly responsive to them. They are unique, possibly the only truly unique drama of our time.’

Sir Harold Hobson, The Sunday Times
