Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, John Galsworthy (1867-1933) is most widely known as the author of The Forsyte Saga
But recent productions testify to the power that his plays still exert over modern audiences and the strength and relevance of the issues he raised ...
In Strife he deals with industrial relations
And in Justice with prison life - one of the few plays to effect real reforms
The Eldest Son is also about injustice - one law for the rich, another for the poor
The Skin Game was Galsworthy's first commercial success, presenting class conflict
Finally, Loyalties is 'a crime drama' about division and prejudice
