Salome

The Glory And Excitement Of Rome... In All Its Greatness and Badness!

Set under Emperor Tiberius, the story follows John the Baptist as he preaches against King Herod and Queen Herodias. Herodias seeks John's death, but Herod fears a prophecy and refuses to harm him. When Princess Salome, Herod's long-absent stepdaughter, arrives, Herodias sees the king's growing desire for her as a way to manipulate him. Yet Salome and her lover Claudius are, contrary to Scripture, moving toward conversion to the new religion.
