Was Prince Edward, known within the Royal Family as David, predisposed to reject his destiny as Heir to the Throne? Did Wallis Simpson merely provide him with an escape route or was she, uniquely amongst his circle, free from sycophancy and therefore the companion for whom he had longed? As history played out across two continents and two world wars, two people struggled to lead private lives while destiny shone a bright light on their every deed. The Abdication was the sensation of the inter-war years. Written in verse, this play seeks to embrace both the gravitas and the humour of the history plays of an earlier era.
