"How do you pull of something like this? Director Rufus Norris talks to Sarah Hemming about the challenge of staging a play by Wole Soyinka", Financial Times, 28 Mar 2009, p. 10 Financial Times Historical Archive, http://link.galegroup.com/apps/doc/HS2307335863/GDCS?u=linc74325&sid=GDCS&xid=8ae3d764.

Sarah Hemming interviews director Rufus Norris about the process of putting on Death and the King's Horseman, by Wole Soyinka. Of the play: "Considered by many to be Wole Soyinka's greatest play, this 1975 drama is based on a real incident in Oyo, Nigeria, in 1946, when the colonial district officer intervened to prevent a local man committing ritual suicide. Soyinka's drama places that man, Elesin, at the centre of the story and follows the disastrous conseqeunces of his being unable to complete the rite."
