The Endangered Species Project has announced their first Terence Rattigan play: The Winslow Boy, from 1946, a masterfully-constructed work that is also a totally engaging emotional experience. The play is a fictional version of an actual court case which had occurred three years before Rattigan was born: The Arche-Shee family had sued the British Admiralty for a false accusation of theft lodged against their naval cadet son, leading to a political sensation. Rattigan changed much of the circumstances of the actual case, but in the character of Sir Robert Morton he kept many of the attributes of the barrister who led the original charge, Sir Edward Carson: a thoroughgoing conservative - one of the prosecutors of Oscar Wilde - who, against expectation, agreed to take on the Admiralty.
Withe their latest production, The Winslow Boy, Stage Centre Productions - with a new Artistic Director at the helm - maintains the same high standards that has made the g4oup one of Toronto's finest repertory theatre companies. * * * * * (out of 5)
