When Pope John Paul I is found dead, just 33 days after his election, the circumstances appear suspicious when it is revealed that, on the night before his death, he warned three of his most influential but hostile cardinals that they would be replaced. When the Vatican refuses to investigate the death, only Cardinal Benelli steps forward to challenge the deceased's enemies.
David Suchet - star of Poirot and Maxwell on television, and Once In A Lifetime and Man And Boy on stage - leads the cast of the production which sold out its run at the Chichester Festival Theatre.
