A brief Prologue by the Church introduces the career of Constantine (from AD 305-337) with scenes from the empires of both west and east, concentrating on Constantines progress to imperial power and inevitably in religious belief. He discovers Christ to be the God who has made him his earthly vice-regent as single Emperor. Summoning the Council of Nicaea in 325, an invigorating debate results in the acceptance of Constantines formula that Christ is of one substance with God The implications of the Creed of Nicaea are revealed in the last part of the play in which it is Constantines mother, Helena, who brings him to the realization that he needs redemption by Christ for his political and military life as well as for the domestic tragedy which has resulted in the death of his son.
