Description:
The Rock was a pageant play with words by T. S. Eliot and music by Martin Shaw, first performed at Sadler’s Wells Theatre in London on 28 May 1934.
In a prefatory note Eliot disclaimed full responsibility for the text, saying "I cannot consider myself the author of the "play", but only of the words which are printed here." By Eliot’s account, the text was written in collaboration with director E. Martin Browne and R. Webb-Odell.
"Choruses from The Rock" are published as part of T.S. Eliot Collected Poems, 1909-1962. (Wikipedia)I cannot consider myself the author of the "play", but of the words which are printed here. The scenario, incorporating some historical scenes suggested by the Rev. R. Webb-Odell, is by Mr. E. Martin Browne, under whose direction I wrote the choruses and dialogues, and submissive to whose expert criticism I rewrote much of them. Of only one scene am I literally the author: for this scene and of course for the sentiments expressed in the choruses I must assume the responsibility.
I should like to make grateful acknowledgment of the collaboration of Dr. Martin Shaw, who composed the music. To Mr. F. V. Morley I am indebted for one speech for which technical knowledge of bricklaying was required; to Major Bonamy Dobree for correcting the diction of the Christopher Wren scene; to Mr. W. F. Cachemaille-Day for information concerning the relations of architects, contractors and foremen. The Rev. Vincent Howson has so com-pletely rewritten, amplified and condensed the dialogue between himself ("Bert’) and his mates, that he deserves the tick of joint author.
T. S. E. April 1934
