“Murder in the Cathedral” by T. S. Eliot was first performed in 1935. It is a verse drama that presents the assassination of Archbishop Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral in 1170.

Most of the information that Eliot has drawn upon comes from the writing of Edward Grim who was an eyewitness to the murder.

The play basically describes how an individual opposes the authority. When the play was written, Fascism was on the rise in Central Europe.

As per the instructions given by the producer of the play, Eliot removed or replaced some of the material from the play, but he later transformed it into a poem titled “Burnt Norton.”
