freely adapted by Peter Barnes from Evelyn Rishburn's translation of "Lo Fingido Verdadero" by Lope de Vega
with Denis Quilley, Timothy West, Ann Beach, Harold Innocent, Tina Marian, Peter Woodthorpe.

Lope de Vega is said to have written 1,500 plays of which about 400 have survived. This black comedy chronicles the rise of the Emperor Diocletian and the unlikely conversion and martyrdom of the Roman actor Genesius - now the patron saint of all actors.
