THE LAST WIFE

by Kate Hennig

This contemporary re-imagining of the compelling relationship between Henry VIII and his last wife, Katherine Parr, is a witty and powerful examination of sexual politics and women’s rights. It’s a dangerous game of chess, with Henry’s offspring, Mary, Elizabeth, and Edward as pawns.

A CO-PRODUCTION WITH THE GREAT CANADIAN THEATRE COMPANY (OTTAWA).

Audience advice: The show is 2 hours 45 minutes long, including one intermission; there is some strong language, nudity, and suggestive material.
