PRODUCTION:
EDWARD THE SECOND
The troublesome reign and lamentable death of Edward the Second’ – being no one’s enemy so much as his own passion and affection for his favourite – Gaveston.
Edward the Second is a dramatised account of the ‘true’ history of Edward’s ‘affection’ for his ‘minion’ and how it led to his dramatic downfall with his Queen and the Earls turning against him. Edward’s problem was loving too well rather than ruling too strong.
Christopher Marlowe was a contemporary of Shakespeare and penned such classics as Dr. Faustus and Tamburlaine the Great.
