Mary Said What She Said

简介

Mary Said What She Said is a three-part monologue of 86 paragraphs that makes clear its intent right from the outset: »Memory, open my heart.« Mary, Queen of Scots and, for a while, Queen of France, reviews her life as ‘the one and only Mary in Scotland and the Isles’, a worthy pretender also to the English throne. We learn that this long study in remembrance takes place just as she has been sentenced to death by beheading by her cousin Elizabeth I, Queen of England, and stands accused of conspiring against her. But it is also a play in the course of which Mary composes a drama of her life, a life whose trajectory begins more or less with her birth and ends with a heart-rending letter of farewell written in French to her brother-in-law Henry III, King of France, on the eve of her death. The timeline unfolds as if the memory of it came to her through free associations. The journey takes us from one surprise to the next, marked by the twists and turns of an existence interspersed by all-too-short periods of happiness and unspeakable calamities. A singular wealth of details, simple and charming, mingles with an impla-cable destiny. Is she searching for her true self? Who can say? After all, what she does know and keeps reminding us is that she is queen and, as such, sacred, and that she proclaims her innocence.
