Edward II of England has been portrayed in popular culture a number of times. ==Theatre and music==
*The most famous fictional account of Edward II's reign is Christopher Marlowe's play ''Edward II'' (c. 1592). It depicts Edward's reign as a single narrative and does not include Bannockburn. It makes reference to Gaveston. In recent years, several acclaimed productions have been staged in the United Kingdom, although the play is seldom performed in the United States outside of large cities and university towns. *Bertolt Brecht's adaptation of Marlowe's play, ''The Life of Edward II of England'', was written in 1923. * The character of Patrick de Salis in Susan Howatch's historical novel ''Cashelmara'' is based on Edward II. *The English world music/folk/reggae band Edward the Second and the Red Hot Polkas, formed in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire in 1985, took for its original name a punning reference to the supposed manner of Edward's murder in the nearby Berkeley Castle. *The English composer John McCabe's ballet, ''Edward II'' (1995), is also based on the Marlowe play.
