Breaking the Code

It’s not breaking a code that matters, it’s where you go from there.
Mastermind code breaker. Maverick. Arguably one of the most important and inquisitive minds of the twentieth century. Alan Turing is famed for cracking the Enigma code at Bletchley Park, effectively securing victory for the Allied forces in WWII.
From triumph to tragedy, get to know a human being who loved, lost and never stopped asking questions in a quest for truth and understanding in this new production of Hugh Whitemore’s Breaking the Code, directed by Jesse Jones.
For the first time, taking into consideration his recent Royal pardon and the development of Turing’s law, the original play will feature new material that speaks to Turing’s lasting legacy on modern Britain.
A Royal & Derngate, Northampton, Landmark Theatres and Oxford Playhouse production in association with Liverpool Everyman & Playhouse.
