Edward II

Edward II was a King of England.

He was the subject of the titular play by Christopher Marlowe. Marlowe's contemporary William Shakespeare believed he had stolen some of his themes for the piece. (PROSE: The Empire of Glass)

One of Doctor Sperano's plays was titled Edward II's Horrible End. Crocker recalled that, at the start of the first scene, Edward II walked on saying "Oh, I do hope I don’t get a red-hot poker shoved up my arse tonight". (PROSE: Managra)
