- The Castle: A Triumph (often shortened to The Castle) is a stage play by Howard Barker. It was performed 18 October - 22 November 1985 by the Royal Shakespeare Company at The Pit in The Barbican Centre as part of a season of three Barker plays (the other two being revival productions of Downchild and Crimes in Hot Countries). The play was directed by Nick Hamm with Ian McDiarmid playing the role of Stucley. The play was, in part, inspired by the Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp, which was set up by female protestors who were campaigning for nuclear disarmament. Barker has stated that "Greenham was one of the starting points for The Castle – probably because my wife was involved with that. I found that a very symbolic event." The Castle is regarded as being amongst Barker's "best known plays". (en)
