A Mistaken King and His Beloved Mariamne in Herod's Court
In a six part Christmas series on the House of Herod the tale follows Herod's jealous passion for Mariamne and his murderous paranoia. Based on Josephus, the piece paints a world of Rome Greco religion and Jewish resistance, where Herod's power and fear drive suspicion, executions, and blood in Judea under Augustus. Tomorrow: Builder and Despoiler.
