Artistic director Abby Burlingame directs in a daring format: two actors will flip a coin in front of the audience to determine who will play which queen that night--both actors having learned both roles. Just as a coin flip will determine the course of each night’s show, so too can the fate of nations rest on a single action.
In "Mary Stuart," Queen Elizabeth I has imprisoned her cousin, Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots. Mary’s existence threatens Elizabeth’s claim to the throne, but executing Mary would turn her into a martyr. As Mary plots her way to freedom, Elizabeth struggles to maintain control of her nation. During a secret meeting between them, they each force the other’s hands, sending the queens barreling towards their thrilling, tragic conclusions.
