Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox play Escort is a 1942 play by the British writer Patrick Hastings. It is a wartime spy thriller about sabotage on a Royal Navy ship.

It ran for 24 performances at the West End Lyric Theatre between 18 August and 5 September 1942. The cast included Thorley Walters, Michael Shepley, John Stuart and Barry Morse. It was produced by Basil Dean.[1]

It was praised by The Spectator, which had recently panned Terrence Rattigan's much more successful Flare Path, as "the best and most convincing spy play" to date.[1]
