Commissioned by the leading actor Alastair Sim (1900-1976) _The Brass
Butterfly_ was Golding's only original stage play. Starring Sim
himself, and also the popular actor George Cole, it opened for a
provincial pre-West End run in Oxford in early 1958 and premiered at
the Strand Theatre in London in April. In his biography of Golding,
John Carey describes it as 'a comic scherzo' dealing with the conflict
between science and religion, transposed to the Greco-Roman world of
antiquity.
