In 1956 John Osborne's Look Back in Anger changed the course of English theatre.
'Look Back in Anger presents post-war youth as it really is. To have done this at all would be a significant achievement; to have done it in a first play is a minor miracle. All the qualities are there, qualities one had despaired of ever seeing on stage - the drift towards anarchy, the instinctive leftishness, the automatic rejection of "official" attitudes, the surrealist sense of humour . . . the casual promiscuity, the sense of lacking a crusade worth fighting for and, underlying all these, the determination that no one who dies shall go unmourned.' Kenneth Tynan, Observer, 13 May 1956
'Look Back in Anger . . . has its inarguable importance as the beginning of a revolution in the British theatre, and as the central and most immediately influential expression of the mood of its time, the mood of the "angry young man".' John Russell Taylor
The Stage in 1956, Osborne submitted
Look Back in Anger. Not only was the play produced, but it was to become considered as the turning point in post-war British theatre. His other plays include
The Entertainer (1957),
Luther (1961),
Inadmissible Evidence(1964), and
A Patriot for Me (1966). He also wrote two volumes of autobiography,
A Better Class of Person (1981) and
Almost a Gentleman (1991) published together as
Looking Back: Never Explain, Never Apologise. His last play,
Deja Vu (1991), returns to the characters of
Look Back in Anger, over thirty years later. Both
Look Back in Anger and
The Entertainer were adapted for film, and in 1963 Osborne won an Academy Award for his screenplay for
Tom Jones. John Osborne died on 24 December 1994.
