SYNOPSIS:

British playwright Howard Brenton (Paul, Pravda) puts a radically revisionist spin on the life and legacy of Anne Boleyn (Madeleine Lambert), Henry VIII's (Steve Kidd) notorious second wife, in this rollicking, often laugh-out-loud funny drama. Traditionally portrayed as siren pawn or sexual predator, Brenton's Boleyn is witty and confident as she takes on the vicious world of Tudor Court politics to help create Protestant England and remake the world. Don't miss the hit of the past two seasons at Shakespeare's Globe in its U.S. premiere at The Gamm.
