Gaius Constantine was a 26-year-old Roman General, and a worshipper of the sun, when he was proclaimed Augustus in York in AD 306. Six years later he was suddenly converted to Christianity. This play explores the private pressures and the spiritual dilemma of the Emperor during his bloody but brilliant campaign against his wife's brother.
