Description

Light Shining in Buckinghamshire depicts the Diggers and Ranters during the English Civil War, and their last desperate burst of revolutionary feeling before the restoration.

'Even more than an immediately impressive exercise in historical drama, the play deals in the rawness of life during the Civil War and the crazy mixture of ideals and half-truths which led a group of free-loving pantheistic communists to set their standard against the standard of the false revolution of Cromwell's parliamentarians' -Steve Grant
