Ralph Fiennes performs Eliot’s masterpiece
Academy Award nominee Ralph Fiennes returns to the West End with his acclaimed performance of T S Eliot’s late masterpiece Four Quartets. The world premiere production opens at the Harold Pinter Theatre for a strictly limited four-week season.Exploring various themes including the nature of time and religious belief, Four Quartets is an interlinked series of four poems which were largely written during the Second World War. Considered by many to be the peak of Nobel Prize winner Eliot’s creative achievement, the poems are a moving reflection of faith and memory in times of national crisis.
Ralph Fiennes (Schindler’s List, The English Patient) directs and performs Eliot’s work, having previously taken the production on a UK tour.
With his monologue described as “magical” and “electric” by critics, Four Quartets tickets are an exciting opportunity to experience Fiennes’ incredible talents and Eliot’s exquisite poetry live. The production opens in London on 18 November 2021.
