by HEDDY ROSSI adapted by MARGARET ETALL with Maxine Audley , Austin Trevor and Frederick Treves
The fate of Europe might have been different if the Emperor Frederick of Germany, who succeeded to the throne in 1888, had lived. He was an enlightened and liberal man, married to Queen Victoria's favourite daughter, and would have prevented the rivalry with Great Britain which launched his son William II, who succeeded him, on the road to the First World War.
This play shows a turning-point in the fate of the world from the point of view of the human beings involved.
