A reinterpretation of history by Mary Stocks adapted for radio by Cynthia Pughe
With David March as Nero
and Gudrun Ure, Richard Hurndall, Mary O'Farrell
Nero is known as the perfect type of blood-thirsty tyrant. In his day, republican sentiment made any emperor fair game, of whom duty required that the worst possible should be said. This play shows how well-intentioned actions might give rise, in a capital seething with gossip, to the kind of stories 'history' records.
