The Visitors (play)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Visitors is a 1961 one-act play by British playwright Joe Orton.[2] The BBC and the Royal Court Theatre had considered the work but ultimately rejected it, despite both having insisted that the writing was "excellent."[3] Orton's career took off in 1964 with the staging of his Entertaining Mr. Sloane, and The Visitors (aka The Visit) remained forgotten until its UK publication in 1998 by Nick Hern Books; a US edition from Grove Press followed in 1999.[4]
