The trickiest sort of play -- a comedy with a tragic relief. With her brother condemned to die for the crime of premarital sex, Isabella is torn between her vows to God and desire to save him. The New York Times says "Kate Nelligan is the image of idealized faultlessness as Isabella...'Measure' works splendidly and the fluid touch of director Desmond Davis serves it well."
Taped May 17-22, 1978 at the BBC Television studios in London.
