Details

by Joe Orton; John Lahr

I suppose I'm a believer in Original Sin. People are profoundly bad but irresistibly funny' Joe Orton. This volume contains everything that Orton wrote for the theatre, radio and television from his first play in 1964, The Ruffian on the Stair, up to his violent death in 1967 at the age of 34.

It includes his major successes:

  • Entertaining Mr Sloane
  • Loot,
  • What the Butler Saw
  • The Erpingham Camp
  • Funeral Games
  • The Good and Faithful Servant. 

The volume includes a revealing introduction by John Lahr, Orton's official biographer." He is the Oscar Wilde of Welfare State gentility" (Observer)
