Playbill: A Breach in the Wall

on BBC One London

by Ray Lawler
with Robert Harris, Barry Justice, John Phillips, Rosemary Leach

The action takes place during the period of office of a future Archbishop of Canterbury.
"It was one of the few plays to examine the basis of spiritual beliefs without booming like a noisy creature from a pulpit." (Robert Ottaway, Daily Sketch)
"The play had its validity and interest intensified by most accomplished performances. Gilchrist Calder directed a first-rate production." (R.W. Cooper, The Times)
