Three Queens

T1092521374
February, 1554. The night before the Nine Days Queen, Lady Jane Grey, is due to be executed for treason and no one in the palace is sleeping. Queen Mary wears the crown of a nation divided by religion. Before the dawn breaks, confessions will be made, prayers will be sent, and more than one life will hang in the balance. Queen Mary is determined to save the soul of England. Future Queen Elizabeth is desperate to avoid her mother's fate, and teenage Queen Jane Grey's rebellion seeks to unravel everything. Told in real time over one sleepless night, the play follows three women manoeuvring for power, each carving out their place in history.
