MARY Stuart by Schiller | A Classical Lab Concert Staged Reading

Take Wing And Soar Productions, Inc. and Voza Rivers/ New Heritage Theatre Group in association with the New-York Historical Society present
THE CLASSICAL LAB READING SERIES
CONCERT PERFORMANCE OF
Schiller’s MARY STUART
Mary Stuart, also known as Mary, Queen of Scots, is the prisoner of her regal cousin, Queen Elizabeth the 1st, but also the victim of her own guilty conscience. But, if Mary is physically confined, Elizabeth is metaphysically trapped by the ancient intrigues of court life and the isolation of monarchy.
Join us as two classically trained actresses go head to head in Schiller’s regal drama, featuring Tony award-winning actress Trezana Beverley as Queen Elizabeth and AUDELCO award winning actress Debra Ann Byrd as Mary, Queen of Scots. Filling out the cast are 12 Classically Trained Actors of Color, with stage direction by AUDELCO award-winning actress and director Petronia Paley and dramatury and text by celebrated artist, director and historian Dathan B. Williams.
