Synopsis

Published alongside the National Theatre of Scotland's major UK and international tour of the award winning trilogy in 2016.

The James Plays are a modern cycle of history plays by award-winning playwright Rona Munro. This vividly-imagined trilogy brings to life three generations of Stewart Kings who ruled Scotland in the tumultuous fifteenth century.

Each play stands alone as a unique vision of a country tussling with its past and future; viewed together they create a complex and compelling narrative on Scottish culture and nationhood.

Through bold and irreverent storytelling, James I: The Key Will Keep the Lock explores the complex character of the colourful Stewart king - poet, lover and law-maker.

A violent royal playground is depicted in James II: Day of the Innocents, a terrifying arena of sharp teeth and long knives.

Like the king himself, James III: The True Mirror is colourful and unpredictable, turning its attention to the women at the heart of the royal court.
