THE KING WHO WAS A KING

“ Our hero must be a man without frustrations. He is to be yourself and myself as we would like to be, simplified, clear in mind, unencumbered and going directly to his objective.” – H.G. Wells The King and The Prince are dead. A bomb on the prince’s wedding day has destroyed any chance for peace and now two countries are on the brink of war. Hungry for bloodshed, the next in line is eager to take the throne. Can the world take another resource war? It’s up to Paul Zelinka, the unsuspecting son of an exiled prince, to go home, reclaim the throne, and bring peace to the region. H.G. Wells released The King Who Was a King in 1929 to no acclaim, but he was convinced that he had written the story that would end war forever. Now, we’re going to stage it. Image by Susie Henderson
