Written on the Heart

Is a play about the King James Bible. I went to see this in Stratford a few days ago, and it's brilliant. It's also sold out, so I hope it'll get another run somewhere, that more may see it. Now, I may be a little partial on this score, being as I have previously said a bibliolater, and also a sucker for any kind of ecclesiastical history, but it's not even just about the commission which produced the KJB in 1611, nor is even most of it set then.
