THE GREATEST DRAMA EVER STAGED Dorothy L. Sayers (1893–1957) was an English crime writer, poet, playwright, essayist, and translator. She was a writer of unusual clarity, wit, and perceptiveness. We are pleased to reprint here her essay, ‘The Greatest Drama Ever Staged’, from Creed or Chaos? And Other Essays in Popular Theology (New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1946), 3–7, with permission from David Higham Associates Limited. Originally written for London’s Sunday Times in April 1938, the essay remains highly relevant for us today. —Zachary Purvis, Lecturer in Church History, Edinburgh Theological Seminary
