Verdi based Don Carlos on Schiller's play, written 80 years earlier. The many political intricacies of the Spanish Court were simplified for the opera libretto. So too were the characters - the Marquis of Posa. liberal friend of Carlos, is more complete and complex in the play than in the opera. Nicholas Hytner , who successfully produced Schiller's drama at Manchester's Royal Exchange Theatre last year, talks to Rodney Milnes about the themes of the play. Producer JOHN BOUNDY
