Bess the Commoner Queen


Bess the Commoner Queen, St Nicholas Chapel, 2019.

Cast: Michelle Todd, Matt Weyland, Tom Dussek, Seth Morgan,

Writer: Kevin Fagan
Director: Rikki Tarascas

I remembered this as a one woman show when it clearly wasn't. Bess of Hardwick is fascinating and there's a great story to be told about her. This wasn't it. I bet Hilary Mantel would have done a great job with her.
