SYNOPSIS
This is an exceptional biographical drama about eccentric genius Alan Turing. He played a major role in winning World War II by breaking the complex enemy code known as Enigma. Since his work was classified as top secret for years after the war, no one knew how much was owed to him when he was put on trial for breaking another code; the taboo of homosexuality. Turing, who was also the first to conceive of computers, was convicted of the criminal act of homosexuality and sentenced to undergo hormone treatments which left him physically and mentally debilitated. He died by suicide, forgotten and alone. This play is about who he was, what happened to him and why.
This amateur production of ‘Breaking the Code’ is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
