Présentation de l'éditeur :

'Scotland may be a savage nation, Lady, but the English wash their hands in blood.'

Mary Stuart tells 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?

Mary Stuart, written in 1800 by Friedrich Schiller, is presented in this new version by Mike Poulton following his Don Carlos for Sheffield/West End. The play was produced at Clwyd Theatr Cymru 7-30 May 2009.
