An excerpt from Trove from another company's staging of this production describes the play as

"The first vignette of Royal tragedy was "White Queen, Red Queen," a one-act play by T. B. Morris. In this were portrayed some of the events leading to the banishment from Court of the first wife of Henry VIII, Catherine of Ara-gen, and her succession by Ann Boleyn. In one act, of course, little could be insinuated of the epoch-making circumstances surrounding this situation, and those which followed it. But the climax, so far as Catherine was concerned, which came when Henry indicated by letter that he desired to be rid of his wife who could bear him
no son, was forcibly demon strated."
