A Letter Of Resignation
7.45pm
1963 was an amazing year: President Kennedy's assassination; the Great Train Robbery; Beatlemania; The Profumo Affair. Life was changing. Britain was becoming a different place and, to many people, Prime Minister Harold MacMillan seemed outdated and irrelevant. However, few were aware that his life was scarred by domestic unhappiness and sexual betrayal. The play centres on John Profumo's letter of resignation which acts as a trigger, not only for the immediate political consequences for the Conservative Party, but also for wider issues of personal and political morality. Tickets: £8
