Jean Racine's 17th century French masterpiece Britannicus, in a stunning adaptation by playwright Howard Rubenstein, tells of intrigue and treachery in the highest places. Nero, the young emperor of Rome, has come to the throne through his powerful mother's machinations and at the expense of the heir apparent, the young, kind, and handsome Britannicus. Surprisingly, Nero reigns wisely and benevolently ... until that fateful day when he is faced with a critical decision - one choice leading to everlasting fame, the other to never-ending infamy.
