Part 1 of an epic play "The British Empire" by John Spurling

The British Empire has no single hero, but a succession of semi-heroes, semi-villains, whose intentions and actions echo and contrast with one another through half-a-century and 59 scenes. Courage and treachery, efficiency and ineptitude, philanthropy and inhumanity are its themes. These people lived and these things happened between 1820 and 1885; they are part of a symphonic drama and not a documentary.

Forty-five other historical characters played by Gordon Reid, Philip Voss, David Brierly, Patience Tomlinson, Crawford Logan, Anthony Newlands, Peter Tuddenham, Joe Dunlop, Mahdav Sharma, Manning Wilson, Sean Barrett, Renu Setna, George Parsons, David Gooderson, Ronald Herdman, James Kerry, Michael Spice, Zia Mohyeddin, Alan Dudley, Steve Hodson, Miranda Forbes, Spencer Banks, Alex Jennings, Louis Mahoney, Lionel Ngakne, Minoo Golvala, Albert Moses

Technical team DAVID GREENWOOD, DAVID CHILTON and VANESSA ELLNER
