A World Premiere in the Touchstone
Prepare for a wild, theatrical ride through the final hours of a waning Queen. As her monarchy teeters, she defers her duties, seeking solace in her bawdy, irreverent Fool. But there are others who may be more than they first appear; scheming players in a courtly game of incendiary secrets, ridiculous jests and the ever-current politics of power and privilege. A witty, twisty thriller to keep you on the edge of your seat (and rolling in the aisles), be among the very first to see it for yourself. Running June 14 - September 19.
Featuring Tracy Michelle Arnold, Jim DeVita, Josh Krause, Nancy Rodriguez
Contains adult themes & language.
Summary
A revered Queen on her way to quitting this mortal coil ponders who will follow in her footsteps in this world premiere production. Adalia – a dying queen who has been tasked with spending the whole of her reign unmarried – must choose her successor. But she’d much rather spend her final days being entertained by Ermo, her very funny fool. As those closest to her become more insistent that she makes her choice, long hidden truths begin to emerge from the shadows in this witty, absurdist tragicomedy.
