Premiered in 1669, the play is set at the court of Emperor Nero, at the moment when his true nature is revealed through a sudden passion for Junia, Britannicus's betrothed. The rivalry between the two stepbrothers intertwines with the machinations of Agrippina, Nero's mother, to maintain her influence over the empire, in a plot of power, jealousy and betrayal.
