The Spanish Tragedie

Don Andrea is dead, yet his first audience is not with the living: at Pluto’s gate, the judges argue over where a soldier in love belongs.

Between Spain and Portugal, a bloody battle has ended in Spanish victory, but the dead have not all left the scene. Don Andrea, a Spanish courtier slain by the Portuguese prince Balthazar, returns as a ghost with Revenge at his side; from the afterlife, he is promised a view of the man responsible for his death. At court, the king celebrates while Balthazar is brought in as a prisoner, between Horatio and Lorenzo. The living call it triumph; Andrea knows what it cost. With Revenge watching beside him, how will this story of love, war and wounded pride be played out?
