I Was King, December 1988

Desmond Carrington as HRH the Duke of Windsor in I Was King

a personal view of royal affairs written and directed by ROYCE RYTON

This sequel to Royce Ryton’s successful play, CROWN MATRIMONIAL, presents the ex-King Edward 8th’s own picture of the extraordinary circumstances leading to his momentous decision to abdicate and the years which followed it.  In this one-man show DESMOND CARRINGTON gives a compelling, sensitive portrayal of the ageing Duke of Windsor in the reasoned, funny, yet touching “personal view of royal affairs”.
