Open-Door Playhouse continues to present short plays in podcast form. Its upcoming play The Tower and the Dead Warder in the Room will debut on October 12, 2023 online at http://opendoorplayhouse.org

 

            It’s 1536. Anne Boleyn, Queen of England, has been charged with capital crimes and is confined in a cell at the Tower of London. She finds herself, to her distaste, having a peasant as a cellmate and that’s not all; To everyone’s surprise, there’s a dead Warder sharing the cell with them. What might the presence of this corpse portend for the cell’s other two occupants? Anne has a plan.

 

            Bernadette Armstrong directs Camille Ameen as Anne Boylen and Sue Gisser as Peasant.

 

             Sandra Cruze is the playwright. Her previous work includes a full-length play (Little Sugar), a short film (The Physics of Killing), a web series (We’re Not Dead Yet) and a musical (Moonshine Mamas).

 

 

            This play is a selection in the Open-Door Playhouse Second Annual Celebration of Women in Theatre.
