Folger Theatre performed their production of texts&beheadings/ElizabethR from September 19 to October 4, 2015 in the Folger's Elizabethan Theatre.
Drawing in part on Elizabeth I’s letters and other material in the Folger collection, this devised theatre piece uses Elizabeth’s own words to reveal her wit, courage, and extraordinary love of her people. Four actresses portray the resilient queen in this compelling, multilingual drama. Through poems, prayers, and private letters, the woman who swore that she would not make windows into men’s souls reveals her own.
