HADRIAN & ANTINOUS
by Anthony Scott
Explore the love affair of the Ancient Greek Emperor Hadrian and his lover, a Greek man named Antinous, in this classically-written, full-length stage play. Based on a true story, the play also fills in the details lost to history with Anthony Scott's idea of what a Shakespearean-style tragedy looks like.
Originally written and copyrighted 2017, Anthony Scott revisited his Shakespearean-inspired, 5-Act tragedy about the tattered relationship of the ancient Greek Emperor Hadrian and his love Antinous in 2020 after the play saw a resurgence of popularity on Wattpad, a site where many authors and playwrights have gotten their start in writing. In 2025, Anthony Scott finally published the script on Amazon in both paperback and eBook form, and you can get it here.
