As the medieval crusades failed, though, so did the Templars, and in 1307, among accusations of heresy, and treason, the senior members of the Order were arrested. Legend tells that their wealth, seen by eyewitnesses only months before, had vanished. With the accusations of heresy upheld, the Order was disbanded, and the last Grand Master burned at the stake in 1314. Legends remain. What became of the Templars treasure? Were they really heretics or victims of a political trap? Legends also tell of them protecting various secrets, including those that could destroy the church - some of those legends relate to the Holy Grail; the cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper, or lost gospels, or even that Jesus had descendants, and that they lived on in the "Sangreal" bloodline, the latter explored most famously by Dan Brown in the Da Vinci Code. Our production also explores some of the legends in a researched drama set beginning in Acre, and then across the old historical Templar sites of Bristol, Templecombe in Somerset though to Trebeigh in east Cornwall. This production company has signed up to the Protecting Actors Fringe Charter, helping to ensure all cast and crew involved operate under safe and fair working conditions.
