Summary After years of war, peace is to be reached between England and France, sealed by the marriage of the English prince and the French princesse. A company of actors is to be sent from England to Paris, to perform at a theatrical gala in celebration of the union. Croke's band of performers is carrying with them an ex-soldier Luke, on the run from the law. Circumstances twist, turn and contrive to place the soldier on the stage, with his new found beloved, where he must ad lib a play of great ingenuity to appease royalty, and the law's claim upon him. 'The Royal Pardon' was first performed at the Bedford Arts Centre, Devon, in 1966.
