4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent adaptation of an equally impressive book., 2 Mar 2001

By A Customer

Hugh Whitmore in the past has adapted the letters of Shaw for his play 'Old Friends' and Helene Hanff (the basis of 84 Charing Cross Road) but his greatest work in my opinion was this adaptation of Andrew Hodges 'Alan Turing- The Enigma'. For those who missed this play when it toured some years ago, this is a more than adequate replacement. The play tells the story of Alan Turing the brilliant mathematician whose pioneering work both in cryptography as well as the early computering machines still have a lasting effect on our lives. The reason for Turings less than massive public profile (which is the least he deserves) was his lifelong refusal to conceal his homosexuality and his ultimate refusal to 'play the game' (in the play Turing himself admits that 'in life, it's not breaking the code that matters but where you go from there') which was eventually to cost him his life. An accessible and entertaining play which achieves the nigh-on impossible feat of maintaining our attention throughout as well as giving some insight into the mind of a genius
