The musical is performed by a small troupe of Players in honor of the fortieth anniversary of Queen Elizabeth I’s celebrated reign (London, 1598) and spans thirty-three years between two story lines: Anne’s ascension and fall the present, as she forges her own path amidst Henry’s desperate attempts to obtain a son; And the future, in which a young Elizabeth grows up learning how to become a great monarch from Henry’s later wives and through her mother’s legacy. <a href="https://www.michaelradi.com/musical-theatre-writing-collective" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">The Musical Theatre Writing Collective</a></p> <p> The <strong>Musical Theatre Writing Collective</strong> is built upon the idea that <em>anyone</em> who writes for the musical theatre or collaborates with those writers should have<strong> access to a welcoming, affirmative, and supportive community</strong> environment in which to continuously learn, connect, and develop as both artists and individuals. </p>
