Synopsis

In this collection of three historical plays, Victor Hugo dramatizes the turmoil of passion, politics, and identity in richly imagined pasts. The Fool's Revenge follows a disfigured court jester whose thirst for vengeance becomes a moral reckoning. Marion de Lorme portrays a courtesan torn between love and royal decree, reflecting tensions between individual will and state control. Lucretia Borgia reimagines the infamous Italian noblewoman as both villain and victim, weaving themes of maternal devotion and societal condemnation. Each play combines sweeping romanticism with fierce emotional conflict, delivering powerful meditations on justice, gender, and human dignity.

Victor Hugo (1802-1885) was a French poet, playwright, novelist, essayist, visual artist, statesman, human rights activist and exponent of the Romantic movement in France. Hugo is best known for Les Miserables and the Hunchback of Notre Dame
