Sir Terence Mervyn Rattigan, CBE (10 June 1911 – 30 November 1977) was a British dramatist. He was one of England's most popular mid twentieth century dramatists. His plays are typically set in an upper-middle-class background. He is known for such works as The Winslow Boy (1946), The Browning Version (1948), The Deep Blue Sea (1952) and Separate Tables (1954), among many others.
A troubled homosexual, who saw himself as an outsider, his plays 'confronted issues of sexual frustration, failed relationships and adultery', and a world of repression and reticence.
Terence Rattigan was born in 1911 in South Kensington, London, United Kingdom, of Irish Protestant extraction. He had an elder brother, Brian. They were the grandsons of Sir William Henry Rattigan, a notable India-based jurist, and later a Liberal Unionist Member of Parliament for North-East Lanarkshire. His father was Frank Rattigan CMG, a diplomat whose exploits included an affair with Princess Elisabeth of Romania (future consort of King George II of Greece) which resulted in her having an abortion.

HARLEQUINADE follows a classical theatre company whose intrigues and dalliances are surprisingly revealed with increasingly calamitous consequences in an affectionate celebration of the lunatic art of putting on a play.

Remember I made you eat crab apple
And you were sick for a week
Then I stuck your sucky up the chimney
'Till you cried for a week
Then I killed your canary with the hair dryer
And kicked you just to see you bruise
Purple and blue
I was only joking my dear
Didn't mean to hurt you all those years
Thought that they were really laughter tears
I was only joking my dear
Oh dear
Remember I told everyone you went all the way
With that fella from Artane
And all the blokes called you Seven Stars
When we were on our way to Mass with Ma
Then to make matters worse when you blushed
I called you beetrout and tomato head
Purple and red
I was only joking my dear
Didn't mean to hurt you all these years
Thought that they were really laughter tears
I was only joking my dear
Remember I borrowed your favorite jeans
Took them in and cut them at the seams
So they'd fit me
You went ballistic when I called your boyfriend
Chancre head and made ashtrays from your
Bread records...
Oh well, what the hell, you got your own back
Purple and black
I was only joking my dear
Didn't mean to hurt you all these years
Thought that they were really laughter tears
I was only joking my dear
I was only joking my dear
Didn't mean to hurt you all those years
Thought that they were really laughter tears
I was only joking my dear
