Mr Birling:
ACT1
Crofts and Birlings are no longer competing but
are working together – for lower costs and higher
prices.
Hard-headed practical man of business
War is inevitable
Man has to make his own way – look after himself
Community and all that nonsense
Nothing to do with that wretched girl’s suicide
Duty to keep labour costs down
I can’t accept any responsibility
Unsinkable
ACT2
ACT3
There’ll be a public scandal… and who here will
suffer for that more than I will?
I’ve got to cover this up as soon as I can
STAGE DIRECTIONS
(explosively) (angrily) (sharply) (very sharply)
(furious) | heavy looking, rather provincial in his
speech
