The 11th century was a dangerous time to be of the line unbroken of King thelred II Unread and his first queen, fgifu of York. Born in Hungary after King Canute III's failed attempt to murder her father, Edward the Exile, Margaret found her life turned upside down by King Edward the Confessor's discovery of her father's survival -- and the resulting recall of her and her family to England.

In this stage version of Margaret of Wessex: Mother, Saint, and Queen of Scots we meet Margaret up close and personal - with a little help from her granddaughter, Empress Matilda of England. From exiled princess to political hostage to three successive kings of England to her marriage to the Ceann Mhor of Alba, Margaret lived one of the most extraordinary lives in medieval Europe and in the process became one of Scotland's most beloved Saints and queens.

Production notes includes detailed timeline and bibliography from the original book, plus information about units of time in the middle ages.
