Details

The infamous, international shape-shifter Frau Welt tells her story for the first and last time. Frau Welt's story charts her struggle to the top, from the discovery of her love for the theatre and humble beginnings in Weimar Berlin to her life on Broadway, cementing her place as a true icon and national treasure. But all is not what it seems. Horrifying revelations about her duplicitous past turns her world, and ours, upside down. Frau Welt is a play about the outsider and the consequences of a life excluded. It examines the masks we wear in our search for acceptance and belonging.
