Not long after the fall of the Berlin Wall, playwright Doug Wright ("Quills," "Grey Gardens," and "Hands on a Hardbody") began a conversation with Charlotte von Mahlsdorf, an elegant and eccentric 65-year-old German transvestite who, against all odds, hid from the Nazis in plain sight as a woman. Wright uses more than 30 characters—all played here by the masterful Benjamin James Michael and directed by Nick Hrutkay to piece together Charlotte's controversial life. The winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and Tony Award for Best Play, "I Am My Own Wife" is a profound story of survival.
