UBC Theatre and Film launches its 2016-‘17 season with Edward II by Christopher Marlowe at the Chan Centre for Performing Art’s Telus Studio Theatre.

Directed by guest artist Mary Vingoe, Edward II is one of the earliest Elizabethan history plays. A story of politics, passion, and murder, the play leads to a fractured England and a monarchy in violent disarray. Newly crowned, drunk on power and blind to consequences, King Edward II recalls his lover Gaveston from exile and showers him with kingly favours, alienating both queen and court.
