Mary Stuart at Motel Theatre at Arts Commons

"To cut the head of an absolute monarch...it's a dangerous precedent."

Following the world premiere of Natalie Meisner's Boom Baby and it's sold-out closing performances, we have our next project:

Mary Stuart
By Dacia Maraini
Translated by Christopher Pearcy with Nicolette Kay

Freely inspired by the work of Schiller, Dacia Maraini’s Mary Stuart depicts a confrontation between the Queen of Scotland and her cousin, Elizabeth I, Queen of England. But more than a historical drama, it is a conflict between two women.

Mary Stuart envies the power her cousin holds; Elizabeth is jealous of the femininity of others. The conflict is also internal, because each is struggling with dreams that thwart her ambitions.

From director Javier Vilalta: “What excites me most is to give two female performers the opportunity to showcase their talents, in a production where gender and politics are explored at length.” The cast features Lauren Brotman and Norma Lewis.

IMPORTANT!

Motel Theatre is an intimate venue which works perfectly for this production, but it means that we have less seats available than normal!
For this production we aren't able to do pre-purchased tickets, but don't worry! We have built a reservation system to make sure you can reserve your spot.

We're expecting sold-out performances on this show, so reserve your seats today. Don't miss out on the masterful performances and theatrical panache of Mary Stuart!
