Edward2

Synopsis:
History repeats itself 'till all become mute. these are the haunting words a two-headed lesbian puppet sputters from behind bars in anton Dudley's play Edward2. This is a world where anyone can be imprisoned for the crime of "unnatural love". . . even the king. King Edward's forbidden love with Gaveston has set the kingdom spinning into a frenzy. Palace mirrors crash. a man's blood is scratched out with fingernails. a queen's heart pops painfully from her chest and plummets to the floor. Presented by a freshly formed ensemble of adelphi University alumni and inspired by Christopher Marlowe's play Edward the II, Edward2 paints a lush theatrical landscape with puppets, actors and music, creating a thrill ride that begs the question "How do I kill a thing that I love?"
