VaPA and Creative Arts Present Elizabeth Rex by Timothy Findley


The Visual and Performing Arts Department and Creative Arts present ELIZABETH REX by Timothy Findley

This provocative drama set in Elizabethan England on the eve of the execution of Robert Devereux, Second Earl of Essex, and thought by many to be a former lover of Queen Elizabeth I, examines such themes as loyalty, honor, passion, betrayal and love. With such roles as William Shakespeare, Master Ned Lowenscroft, and Queen Elizabeth I herself, the story of how this iconic Queen came to find comfort in the company of Shakespeare’s troupe of actors is a moving reflection of self-discovery and combines fact and fiction into a seamless tale of acceptance.
