Opening: Robert Gulack's Six Husbands of Elizabeth the Queen
How much of a shove would it take to turn Tudor history on its ear?
The whole world knows the story of Elizabeth I and how she safeguarded her power by refusing to marry. But - if the tiniest accident had gone the other way - how might the legend of her life and loves have turned out? Might Shakespeare's Virgin Queen have become the Liz Taylor of the 1500s?
Six Husbands of Elizabeth the Queen
From July 5 to July 19, 2008, at the air-conditioned Parker Theater, 123 East 24th St. (between Park & Lex), Love Creek Productions will present Robert Gulack's "Six Husbands of Elizabeth the Queen," a play in two acts about one woman's private history in a universe just a little different than our own. (Bob Gulack is an occasional ECS/Bergen Platform speaker and Socrates Cafe attendee.) As befits a story set in this period, the entire spoken text of the play is in the form of Shakespearean sonnets. Music for this production has been composed by the Emmy-Award-winning composer Larry Hochman (Tony nominee for Spamalot). You may reserve seats by calling (212) 769-7973. Beginning June 23, you may purchase tickets on the Internet via theatermania.com. Tickets are $18.
Performance dates and times: 7/5 8 PM, 7/6 3 & 7 PM, 7/8-7/11 8 PM, 7/12 6 PM, 7/13 3 & 7 PM, 7/18 8 PM, 7/19 3 & 8 PM. More info.
