''Breaking the Code'' is a 1986 play by Hugh Whitemore about British mathematician Alan Turing, who was a key player in the breaking of the German Enigma code at Bletchley Park during World War II and founder of computer science. The play thematically links Turing's cryptographic activities with his attempts to grapple with his homosexuality. It was adapted as a 1996 television film directed by Herbert Wise with Derek Jacobi reprising his stage role as Turing. ==Characters== * Alan Turing * Mick Ross, detective * Christopher Morcom, Turing's childhood friend (1911–1930) * Sara Turing, Turing's mother (1881–1976) * Ron Miller, a young man having an affair with Turing (based on Arnold Murray)〔The name ''Ronald Miller'' was used by Alan Turing himself in a fragmentary autobiographical short story dated 1954 ((AMT/A/13 in the Digital Turing Archive )).〕 * Dilly Knox, manager at Bletchley Park recruiting Turing for government service * Patricia "Pat" Green, a co-worker of Turing's at Bletchley (based on Joan Clarke; 1917–1996) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Breaking the Code」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
