Oscar Wilde’s A Florentine Tragedy in the incomplete form in which he left it has remained largely unread and unstaged. The play, set in renaissance Florence, is a dark poetic tale of an illicit love affair between a prince of the city and the lovely commoner, Bianca. When her merchant husband comes upon them and realizes what has been happening events move quickly to violence and high tragedy. The play stirred the Italian blood of playwright-poet, Frank Crocitto, and he has finished it in Wilde’s “inimitable style” and made it producible.
