视频简介
Katherine of Alexandria, brought up as a nomad and living in the desert, was aged just 11 when Emperor Maxentius saw her whilst out on patrol. Consumed by her beauty, impudence and uncanny talent for languages, he abducted the child, killing her family. The slaughter was witnessed by her young friend, Constantine, who would later become Emperor of the Western Roman Empire. He never lost hope of finding Katherine. As a young woman, Katherine refused to submit to Maxentius' offers of marriage and she continually denounced his brutal enforcement of pagan religion upon the masses. Still obsessed with her beauty, Maxentius brought Katherine before 50 of Rome's finest scholars in an open court in Alexandria, where she eloquently demolished their arguments. When Constantine learned of Katherine's whereabouts and imprisonment at the hands of Maxentius, he led his army from York in a desperate bid to save her.。电视剧《杂技皇后夏菊花》于2007年7月开拍，同年9月初摄制完成。作为我国第一部反映杂技艺术家人生的电视剧，《杂技皇后夏菊花》从童年、青年、中年三个阶段讲述了我国著名杂技表演艺术家、中国文联副主席、中国杂协主席夏菊花极富传奇色彩的艺术人生经历。。
