Friedrich Schiller is considered to be one of the most consistent supporters of the lofty ideals: spiritual, moral, political and aesthetic. His tragedies, philosophical treatise, ballads, and poems are very actual these days. Schiller’s plays are continuously played worldwide. His class tragedy Intrigue and Love made him especially famous.
Insidious intrigues and horrendous crimes, the luxury of a ducal circle and the misery of a commoner — such is the situation in which the love story of two young people unfolds.
Ferdinand’s scion of President Ferdinand’s love for a simple family girl, Louise, threatens to destroy all the plans of a power-hungry father who intends to marry Ferdinand to Duke Lady Milford's favourite. And here the cruellest intrigues come to the stage. Ambitions ignore all moral rules, class conflict makes the situation even more complicated, and all of this creates a real tragedy.
Intrigue and Love made Schiller famous as a vigorous promoter of freedom
