Maria Stuart & Elisabeth

The play sheds light on the historical confrontation between Mary Stuart, the Queen of Scotland, and Elizabeth I of England.

In this psychological interpretation, their relationship is staged as an emotional triangle drama. At the center is the conflict between the two monarchs, who are bound by power and rivalry. Mary, trapped and sentenced to death, fights for her freedom, while Elizabeth is torn between political responsibility and personal empathy. Philipp Sonntag's new adaptation portrays the two women as vulnerable, passionate characters in a fatal power struggle that ends in inevitable tragedy.
