A NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR
Edward II is about a
king who wants to feel
more. Always more.
His addiction to his lover
is fuelled by a desire to
feel more love, more
pain, more ecstasy, more
possession. His common
state of existence is one
of emotional numbness,
and it is from this he
wishes to constantly
shock himself.
#edward2
An introduction on Edward II from
Director Matthew Lutton
He is also a leader who has no
interest in leading. He is more
celebrity than leader. He parades
his personal life and personality in
hope of offering inspiration and
guidance, as opposed to observing
and reflecting on the emotional
undercurrents of the community.
He is therefore a leader born from
a world of hyper-individuality
and narcissism, leading a world
of individuals and narcissists.
Anthony Weigh’s set of fractured
scenes and ‘scenelets’ creates
a fictional world for Edward
II to exist within. It is a world
that merges the violence of the
fourteenth century with twentyfirst century psychology, and is a
world responding to the extremes
that we go to today to gain power
and possession over each other.
It is also a play about the ecstasy
of love. How, for the narcissist, the
pursuit of love to the exclusion of all
else is a violent act that can lead to
the annihilation of the entire world.
——> PG 1
A NOTE FROM THE WRITER
The Troublesome Reign and
Lamentable Death of Edward the
Second, King of England, with the
Tragical Fall of Proud Mortimer
by Christopher Marlowe is a big
play. It takes place over five acts
and contains 20 odd locations.
It involves a banishment followed
by a reunion followed by another
banishment. A bishop is publicly
humiliated, as is a queen. There’s
a war with Scotland and one with
France. A trip to Ireland and a
trip to France. Multiple farewell
scenes. Gay sex, straight sex.
A palace coup. Lots and lots of
talk about love and dogs and the
Goddess Diana. And of course, the
famous scene where a king meets
his end courtesy of a hot poker.
eye in a pub in Deptford and died
instantly. He couldn’t have written
his own ending better if he’d tried.
It’s the rich and multifarious
nature of Marlowe’s material that
makes it a particularly malleable
play. It’s the reason it’s been so
variously adapted over the years.
Bertolt Brecht and Lion
Feuchtwanger transformed it in
1923 for the Munich Kammerspiele
as The Life of Edward II of England
(Leben Eduard des Zweiten von
England). While it takes its
starting point from the original,
the play is an entirely new work
with its own epic structure
exploring ideas of power and
volition. Brecht said of the play,
‘We wanted to make possible a
production which would break
with the Shakespearean tradition
common to German theatres: that
lumpy monumental style beloved
of middle-class philistines.’1
For filmmaker Derek Jarman,
his 1991 film Edward II became a
means of exploring gay politics in
Thatcher-era Britain. (Thatcher’s
odious Section 28 banning the
promotion of homosexuality by
local authorities had been passed
in 1988.) Edward and his lover Piers
are persecuted by Mortimer largely
because of their love.
——> PG 3
——> PG 2
On one hand, it’s a straightforward
Elizabethan history play. On
another, a tragic love story
between two men. On another,
a shrewd analysis of class and
power. On another, a play about
dysfunctional families. And yet
another, a scathing morality play
about the dangers of excess.
It’s over-stuffed and anarchic and
unruly and young … really, really
young. It’s a young person’s play.
(Perhaps this is why it’s so beloved
of university drama societies.)
Marlowe wrote it at 28. A year later
he was stabbed above the right

The evolution of Marlowe’s text
by Anthony Weigh
A NOTE FROM THE WRITER
When director Matthew Lutton
and I began our own exploration
of Marlowe’s original we were
keen to see how we might mine it
for fresh perspectives. As well as
history and politics, what else might
lurk at the heart of this play?
Our starting point was to distill the
material to its essence. Its DNA,
if you like. A king. A prince. A lover.
A wife. A rival. A child. Once we had
concentrated the world into those
elements, we sought to rebuild the
story with a specific focus on the
psychology of the characters.
We came up with 40 scenes and
a single monologue which, when
arranged back inside a five act
structure, presented a psychologised
vision of Marlowe’s original.
A work about the destructive
consequences of narcissism
and how this destruction might
be mirrored in the world.
It is imperative, as we stage this
work in 2016 Australia, that we
depict gay men; meeting, falling
in love, fighting, fucking, betraying
one another, forgiving one another
and, most importantly, making
families and parenting children.
This production is, in part,
a rebuff to the cowardice of our
impoverished political class, whose
obfuscation and sophistry continues
to deny gay men and women the
opportunity to live equally with
our straight brothers and sisters.
At one stage late in the play,
Piers describes he and Ned and
Ned’s young son together on
holiday being ‘like’ a family. He is
immediately corrected by Ned.
‘Not ‘like’, Ned says, ‘A family!’
One of this work’s persistent
motifs is that the love of two men
does not approximate the love of a
man and a woman. It is identical.
Love is Love. It’s something
I feel confident Marlowe knew
instinctively, containing as he did
this story about two men with a love
so powerful that it might destroy
themselves and an entire kingdom.

(1954). In Willett and Manheim (1970, 454).
——> PG 5
——> PG 4
As our conversation with Marlowe
across time and space took shape,
I was pleased to see how much of
the original kept asserting itself.
So many details floated to the
surface. One thing that affirmed
itself over and over again was how
utterly unremarkable Edward’s
homosexuality was. In the original
text, the objections of the court
to Edward’s lover Piers lie in his
class, not his gender. This very
unremarkableness was what made
the work so prescient. The more
we worked on the play, the more
we saw that in our current political
climate, this unremarkableness
was not just pleasing but vital.

WHAT’S UP NEXT
THE FIERY MAZE
18 AUG – 4 SEP
The Fiery Maze / sets the poetry of Dorothy Porter to music composed
by Tim Finn. Conceived by Porter and Finn in 1995 as a ‘rock concert album’,
the talents of these two extraordinary artists combine to produce raw,
intimate songs about love, sex and obsession.
Each of Porter’s previously unpublished poems deals with the
disillusions of love and lust, as well as the blinding moments of blazing connection.
Porter is known for the visceral power of her language;
for crafting characters, scenarios and poems that crackle with sexual energy.
Her journey into ‘love’s hopeless fiery maze’ is no exception.
We hope you’re swept up in Edward II’s obsessions
and fall for the show. There’s still plenty more to
enjoy in Season 2016, from the provocative Gonzo,
to Gob Squad’s wild take on War and Peace, to the camp
humour of Blaque Showgirls. Why not see all three,
save big and book a Mini Malty package?
