A production of T S Eliot's timeless masterpiece in a church setting by St Edmund's Players
The parish church of St Edmund's provides a stunning backdrop for this retelling of one of the most heinous crimes in medieval history - the murder of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury in 1170. Eliot's work from 1935 which explores the themes of power, divided loyalties, faith and love, for which Thomas paid the ultimate price, is as relevant today as it was then when Europe stood on the brink of war.
