The show features Mary Tudor, otherwise known as Bloody Mary, as a teenager, performing a snarky stand-up set to explain why she burned all those people at the stake. In her set, she confesses what it was like to be the daughter of Henry VIII, to watch her parents go through the worst divorce, like, ever, and to grow up a little bit jealous of her younger sister Elizabeth I. This biting new play is written and performed by Olivia Miller, and was shortlisted for the 2020 Les Enfants Terribles Award.
