Elizabeth I — In Her Own Words

The Augustana community is invited to attend the performance of "Elizabeth I — In Her Own Words", a play that attempts to show what Queen Elizabeth I was like during her reign.

This show is grounded in research by leading Elizabeth I historian, Carole Levin. Levin has crafted a captivating dramatization of the illustrious person and the period. Tamara Meneghini brings the monarch to life weaving together excerpts from Shakespeare’s cannon, as performed by Bernadette Venters-Sefic. "Elizabeth I – In Her Own Words" promises to offer an intimate exploration of the queen, her upbringing, her life, loves and her connection to the beloved Bard.

The show is 55 minutes with no intermission.
