Edward II by Christopher Marlowe performed by the Rococo Players
Friday 9th & Saturday 10th April 2010

The Rococo Players, one of Gloucestershire’s strongest theatre groups, assemble a stellar cast to perform Marlowe’s masterpiece in three unique and historically relevant venues.
On the 9th & 10th of April 2010 they will be bringing their production to Berkeley Castle's Great Hall, an intimate and highly atmospheric setting for what is a controversial play with a devastatingly gruesome climax – and only feet away from the place of Edward's imprisonment and murder in 1327.

Tickets are available from the Rococo Player's website or by calling 07518 574711 and cost £20 or £17 for students.
