Spinoza: the Apostle of Reason

Drama based on the life and thought of Spinoza, who was born in sixteenth century Amsterdam to a family of Jewish refugees from Portugal. He lived in an age of turmoil, when the Dutch Republic and the English Commonwealth had polarised the entire continent. His scepticism enraged the Jewish elders and led to his excommunication.
