TS Eliot's Murder in the Cathedral

I've been asked to promote this exciting event which will be stage uniquely at Temple Church in London on Friday 30th January to Sunday 1st February 2015.




Murder in the Cathedral starring Philip Franks is written by TS Elliott and directed by Joe Harmston - the brain child of Stephen Hockman QC who will be the future Middle Temple's Treasurer.  The production stars a professional cast of five and non professional cast of 16 who are from the British and Irish Bar.  Legal and theatrical professions unite and collaborate Murder in the Cathedral with which will be a unique event staging at an appropriate time.

Murder in the Cathedral explores themes which are so familiar today such as terrorism, religious conflicts and divisions and consequential speech which had led to tragedies including the murder of Charlie Heddo recently in France.  The story about the murder of Archbishop Thomas Beckett links similarly with the recent news.

The music is composed by Matthew Bugg, designs by Simon Scullion (sets), John Harris (lighting) and Jonathan Lipman on behalf of Angels (costumes).  The production is also supported by The Chorus of the Women of Canterbury and The Priests consisting of legal professionals.
