No one in Barker's generation did more to change British Theatre

The Marrying of Ann Leete, is thinly veiled costume drama, using an 18th century tale to reflect on 19th century reality. It follows the story of Ann a "new woman", surrounded by a society of manoeuvres and lies

The Madras House follows the fortunes of the Madras family at the height of Edwardian expansion of London and the reformation of ideas about society and gender roles

His Majesty is the fictional story of the king of a cash-strapped Eastern European country where naive make-believe meets the dark universe of realpolitik

Farewell to the Theatre is a witty commentary on the trials and tribulations of a theatre and its actors
