MARY STUART
By Friedrich Schiller
A new version by Mike Poulton
Director: Terry Hands
Designer: Max Jones
Composer: Colin Towns
‘Scotland may be a savage nation, Lady, but the English wash their hands in blood.’
Mary Stuart tells the story of the personal struggle between two extraordinary women - one French, one English - both captive to the demands of sovereignty and both caught in a tumult of political and religious intrigue.
Which of them is the rightful Queen of England – Mary Stuart or Elizabeth Tudor?
Mary Stuart, written in 1800 by Friedrich Schiller, is performed in a new version by Mike Poulton following his Don Carlos for Sheffield/West End and The Cherry Orchard here.
Directed by Terry Hands.
