North Street Playhouse presents, The Spectacularly Lamentable Trial of Miz Martha Washington

The recently widowed “Mother of America” lies seriously ill in her Mount Vernon bed, cared for by the very slaves that will be free the moment she dies. As she begins to slip away, she falls deep into a fever dream of broad theatricality that investigates everything from her family to her historical legacy.

“…an extraordinary dark comedy about slavery in America… [a] theatrical discovery of the best kind—a terrific script not to be missed…” —DCMetroTheaterArts.com. “… [A] bold and theatrically bright new play… Ijames lets his imagination loose with MIZ MARTHA. The result is a skewered history that, like satire through the ages, has the ring of truth…” —NewsWorks.org.

Tickets: $23.00 Adult
$20.00 Senior
$10.00 Student
