""Edward II"" is a play written by Christopher Marlowe, first performed in the early 1590s. The play is a dramatization of the life and reign of King Edward II of England, who ruled from 1307 to 1327. The play follows Edward's tumultuous relationship with his wife, Queen Isabella, and his controversial relationship with his favorite, Piers Gaveston.
