John Masefield in 1916

Good Friday: A Play in Verse is a 1914 work by English poet John Masefield.[1] first published in The Fortnightly Review in December 1915.[citation needed] Good Friday and Other Poems was published in New York in 1916 by The Macmillan Company.[2]

By 1913 Masefield was best known for his long narrative poem, Dauber,[3] and the St James's Theatre was reviving his play The Witch[4] and Nan.[5]

A German translation of Good Friday, by Erich Fried, was broadcast on the BBC German Service in 1951.[6] 14 April 1960 saw the broadcast of Hugh Stewart's Home Service production of Good Friday, in which artists William Devlin and Ursula O'Leary, as Pontius Pilate and Procula, perform to the atmospheric sound effects of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop's soundware, such as the EMS Synthi 100 and ARP Odyssey l.[7]

Setting the scene following the crucifixion of Jesus in Good Friday, Masefield directs that Pilate should enter "as the darkness reddens to a glare."[7]
