Story:

Antiochus, the Seleucid king of Iran, and the beautiful Zenobia, the rebel queen of Palmyra, return to the capital after a bloody campaign. Zenobia is pregnant with the king of Iran.

Fearful of Zenobia's rise to power, the king's sons encourage Laodice, the king's wife, to stand up to the capricious king and hand Zenobia over to the Roman army.

Antiochus is weak and indecisive and cannot make a decisive decision.

The clever Zenobia makes conspiracies and forces her Palmyraean guards to trap the king's children.

Then, hateful grudges and terrible conspiracies appear, which lead the story to a terrible massacre.

This play is the seditious story of Zenobia and the complicity of the reluctant king and the choices of others that lead to the evil killing of the royal family.
