The Lady’s Not for Burning is a verse comedy in three acts. Christopher Fry’s hilarious commentary on societal norms, hypocrisy, the long tradition of persecuting the feminine aspect both human and divine, and finally love conquering all, especially and at last, the strange ‘war between the sexes’.

“I seem to wish to have some importance in the play of time.”
Jennet Jourdemayne
“What is deep, as Love is deep, I’ll have deeply.
What is good, as Love is good, I’ll have well.
Then, if time and space have any purpose, I shall belong to it.”
Jennet Jourdemayne
“The least I can do is to fill the curled shell of the world with human deep-sea sound,
And hold it to the ear of God,
Until he has appetite to taste our salt-sorrow on His lips.”
Jennet Jourdemayne
Fry’s plays develop themes that deal with his primary interest: incisive exploration into how we see ourselves, each other, and the struggle to find meaning and progress in the world. His poetic lyricism and genius is most evident in this, his most popular work, The Lady's Not For Burning.
