Description
A verse play in the form of a Classical Greek tragedy.The final day of Camelot seen through the eyes of the women left behind by war.Guenevere the Queen has taken refuge with nuns in an Abbey as the men of her life battle to save what warfare can only destroy. One by one they come to her for final leave-takings.Then all that is left is myth.Guenevere's tragedy arises from the inevitably accumulated baggage of social responsibility that in the end prevents us from following our heart's desire. And Guenevere's redemption comes in her willing embrace of her transformation into myth. Guenevere's story is the story of every human who ages as a social animal. Only the solitary hermit or anchoress can escape the ever increasing calls for us to discharge our duties at the expense of our dreams of simply following our bliss. But the hermit and anchoress long ago gave up on worldly bliss."Guenevere" was produced in 2018 at the Edmonton International Fringe Festival after development and a ten day run in 2017 as a part of the Walterdale Theatre's Cradle to Stage Festival.
