How hard would you fight to BE who your soul wants you to be?
Based on a true story and inspired by interviews conducted by the playwright over several years, I Am My Own Wife tells the fascinating tale of Charlotte von Mahlsdorf, a German man who managed to survive both the Nazi onslaught and the repressive East German Communist regime, as a cross-dressing museum owner. One actor plays all 37 roles, sky-diving from accent to accent and gender to gender with ease and artistry.
This play very powerfully makes a case for the necessity of storytelling in our lives. In other words, to endure the world, people may lie about themselves or to themselves, and the lies eventually become as important as the truth.
This Tony Award, Pulitzer Prize and Drama Desk Award-Winning play is a one man tour-de-force about survival, freedom and what it means to be truly human.
