Epitaph for George Dillon

Epitaph for George Dillon is John Osborne’s and Anthony Creighton’s domestic and political drama of hope and disillusionment set in a lower middle class household in South London. The Elliots live their unhappy suburban life until Kate Elliot brings home a surrogate for her son killed in war, the charismatic and bohemian George Dillon. He is an aspiring actor and penniless writer recently freed from the constraints of employment, his fall cushioned by the kindness and generosity of Kate Elliot.
