Drama

An unruly bunch of bright, funny sixth-form boys in pursuit of sex, sport and a place at university. A maverick English teacher at odds with the young and shrewd supply teacher. A headmaster obsessed with results; a history teacher who thinks he's a fool. In Alan Bennett's new play, staff room rivalry and the anarchy of adolescence provoke insistent questions about history and how you teach it; about education and its purpose. The History Boys premiegrave;red at the National in May 2004. 'One of our most considerable as well as one of our most enjoyable playwrights.' Times Literary Supplement 'What makes Bennett remarkable is a linguistic spark, an unerring sense for the right word.' Spectator
