The Babington Plot was a Catholic plot in 1586 to assassinate Queen Elizabeth, a Protestant, and put Mary, Queen of Scots, a Catholic, on the English throne. It led to the execution of Mary. The long-term goal was an invasion by the Spanish forces of King Philip II and the Catholic league in France, leading to the restoration of the Catholic religion in England. The chief conspirator was Sir Anthony Babington (1561-1586), a young Catholic nobleman. The leading Catholics in England were loyal to Elizabeth and rebuffed overtures to support the plot. The actual designers were Don Bernardino de Mendoza in Paris and King Philip II in Madrid.

The play's title is "Equivocation" written by Bill Cain. Currently in production (World Premere) at the Ashland Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Equivocation is the recipient of The Edgerton Foundation 2008 New American Plays Award.The play tells the story of William Shagspeare (Bill Cain's favorite spelling of the name) struggle to write a play about the Gun Powder Plot for King James. In conversations with various individuals "involved" in the plot, Shagspeare comes to realize that what the government wants is a play that will be a propaganda play to justify the persecution of the Roman Catholic Church, its Priests and its members.Shagspeare's solution is to use Father Henry Garnet's practice of Equivocation to tell the story and keep from offending the King and Sir Robert Cecil, a ruthless member of the King's Council.Shagspeare writes MacBeth, which pleases the King and keeps Sir Robert Cecil from destroying William Shagspeare.

when Elizabeth I killed Mary Queen Of Scots...The Babington Plot was a way to kill Elizabeth!
Yes, Anthony Babington was beheaded for treason. He was involved in a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I and replace her with Mary, Queen of Scots. After his conspiracy was discovered, he was arrested, tried, and executed in 1586. His execution was part of the broader context of political and religious tensions in England at the time.
It was a plan to assisinate Queen Elizaberth I for Mary's freedom, name is taken after Anthony Babington who was part of the big plan to free Mary of Scots.
Mary, Queen of Scots was executed in 1587 because she was implicated in a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I of England. This plot, known as the Babington Plot, led to Mary being convicted of treason and subsequently executed at Fotheringhay Castle. Her execution was also influenced by political tensions and power struggles of the time.
The plot to murder Mary Stuart's cousin, Queen Elizabeth I of England, was primarily devised by Robert Catesby and other conspirators involved in the Babington Plot. This conspiracy aimed to assassinate Elizabeth and place Mary on the English throne. The plan ultimately failed, leading to the arrest and execution of many involved, including Mary Stuart herself.
I think you mean the babington plot; a plot in 1586 organized to remove Elizabeth I from power and replace her with Mary Stuart, known as Mary Queen of Scots. The plot involved Catholic support and was uncovered largely by the work of Francis Walsingham, Elizabeth I's spymaster. The plot led to the execution of Mary Stuart in 1587, as Elizabeth finally had clear proof that mary had plotted against her. It can be seen as a (tenuous) cause of the Spanish Armada in 1588.
The Babington Letter was a correspondence in 1586 revealing a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I of England. It was written by Anthony Babington to Mary, Queen of Scots, discussing a plan to overthrow Elizabeth and place Mary on the English throne. The letter was intercepted by Elizabeth's spies, leading to Babington's arrest and ultimately Mary's execution.
