ABOUT EDWARD II

In the wake of Edward I’s death, his son Edward has taken the throne as Edward II. His radical ideas around affairs of state, lack of military acumen, and loyalty to his ambitious lover Piers Gaveston pit him against powerful nobles and his calculating queen. These conflicts lead to Gaveston’s exile and murder, new and shifting romantic loyalties on all sides, and revenge and retribution that ultimately seal Edward’s fate.

​ ​

“A supremely modern work… tells the story of sexual obsession, religious power, and the intersection of the political and personal lives of a flawed leader… a play fired with the excitement of today.” ―​New York Times
