Jeremy Kingston - Biography
Jeremy is a theatre critic on The Times and was previously the theatre critic on the old Punch for 11 years.
He has written novels, children’s books and two West End plays. He wrote Oedipus at the Crossroads because he wondered how it came about that Oedipus, presumably not wanting to kill his father and marry his mother, did precisely that within a few days. Jeremy felt around for a different explanation.
His first play, No Concern of Mine (with John Fraser and Alan Dobie) was at the Westminster Theatre. Signs of the Times with Kenneth More and Liza Goddard ran at the Vaudeville Theatre for six months.
