Description

Schiller's 'Mary Stuart' is a grand historical drama telling the story of the personal struggle between two extraordinary women - one French, one English - both captive to the demands of sovereignty and both caught in a tumult of political and religious intrigue. Which of them is the rightful Queen of England: Mary Stuart or Elizabeth Tudor? Intertwined with this rivalry is a vicious struggle between Lord Burghley and the Earl of Leicester, both of whom feel a loyalty to their queen, while Leicester also harbours a secret passion for Mary. Mike Poulton's translation was written for a production that premiered at Clwyd Theatr Cymru in May 2009.
