The story behind one of the bloodiest days in French history.
Playwright. Poet. Provocateur.
Much has been said about Christopher Marlowe.
He was a heretic and a hedonist. An icon of English theatre and a spy for Elizabeth I.
Born in Canterbury, dead at 29 – in a bar brawl, at the order of the Queen or a masterful fakery, depending on who you ask.
Now, for the first time in 400 years, Marlowe’s plays are presented in their entirety. Captured using state-of-the-art high-definition cameras and spatial audio, this is theatre on screen as you’ve never experienced it before.
Directed by Dr Abigail Rokison-Woodall, with a cast led by Michael Maloney (Light Shining In Buckinghamshire, Belfast, Magpie Murders).
