The Vengeance of Nitocris & The Pronoun ‘I’
In Ancient Egypt a sister avenges the death of her brother, the Pharaoh. In a very Merrie Olde England, shape-shifting Mad Queen May renounces her newest pretty lover, an enormously vain poet who cannot begin a poem without the pronoun ‘I.” Just what Provincetown needed: two more killer queens!
Adapted from Tennessee Williams’ first published work (“The Vengeance of Nitocris,” 1928), and Williams’ bawdy fantasy one-act (The Pronoun ‘I’) published in 2008. The ensemble is a mix of artists from Capetown South Africa and Cape Cod locals.
