- Summary:
- 'The Ruling Class', premiered at the Nottingham Playhouse in 1968, is a witty, double-edged and idiosyncratic satire. After the 13th Earl of Gurney's morbid nightly indulgence turns into an accidental suicide, the title and estate passes to his son Jack, who has until hitherto been living in a psychiatric institution. He brings with him a belief in divine love, a penchant for sleeping upright on a cross and the conviction that he is the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.
