Massey to bring play
Massey to bring play
Massey University's Dramatic Society will play a two-night season of "Magnificence", a morality play by John Skelton, in the Union Theatre in the first week of next term.
The play will travel to Wellington after a five-night season in Palmerston North.
Written about 1515, "Magnificence" differs from most morality plays in that its theme is strongly political, concerning a prince whose state is subverted through the destruction of his own moral standards.
The Wellington season has the backing of the Victoria University Drama Club and the English Department, and the dates are May 22 and 23.
