Artorigus
by Ross Stephenson
directed by Tom Plenderleith
Written in Iambic Pentameter and combining Classical with Contemporary Theatre, this modern adaptation of the Legends of King Arthur explores the themes of idleness, betrayal and love.
After the recent death of the successor to the King, a power struggle erupts. Each candidate has a legitimate claim but some of them have the ambition, while others refuse to act. Meanwhile the Illegitimate son of the King, Medraut, plots to overthrow his Father. With scheming and violence his dream comes to fruition as he destroys the ideology, loyalty and the lives of his fellow comrades.
