Set during the American Revolution, the play dramatizes the anguished debate over whether to execute Major John André, a British officer caught as a spy in Benedict Arnold's treason plot. Presenting a fictionalized account rather than historic details, it explores American conflict over the fate of this brilliant, charming young officer. Notable as the first American tragedy on an American subject, the play sparked controversy for its sympathetic portrayal of André. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
