Amadeus - Peter Shaffer by Peter Shaffer
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is a genius, the most brilliant musician the world will ever see. But the court of eighteenth-century Vienna doesnt recognize his talents - only Antonio Salieri, the Court Composer, does, and he is tortured by what he hears. Seething with rage at the genius of this flippant buffoon and suddenly aware of his own mediocrity, Salieri declares war and sets out to destroy the man he sees as Gods instrument on earth. Peter Shaffers award-winning play is a rich, exuberant portrayal of a God-like man among mortals, and lives destroyed by envy.
