""Ella: A Historical Tragedy, In Five Acts"" is a play written by John Morrison and published in 1834. The story is set in 9th century England and follows the life of Ella, the daughter of King Alfred the Great. The play explores themes of power, love, and betrayal as Ella navigates her way through the political landscape of her time.
