In 1995 the producer of Portal Productions, Marke Levene, had about an hour of inspiration in which he "saw" fourteen scenes that together made up a drama that would follow the four written by Rudolf Steiner. His outline had to wait sixteen years before the next step was taken and Michael Hedley Burton began working with what Marke had given him. Michael's task was to attempt to craft Steiner's play as a genuine Michaelic imagination that speaks to people from the twenty-first century. After seven drafts had been written over a period of four years, the play was "finished" as a literary work. This book is a preview of what the new play reveals.
