PREVIEW: I am My Own Wife
ArtsWest Playhouse presents the Seattle Premiere of I AM MY OWN WIFE May 14 – June 1, 2008
Footlight Award Winner NICK DeSANTIS stars as Charlotte von Mahlsdorf, a soft-spoken German transvestite who survived the cruel regimes of both the Nazis and the Communists. Based on interviews with the real Charlotte von Mahlsdorf by playwright Doug Wright, this one-man show features harrowing tales of endurance and survival that are nothing short of breathtaking.
But are they true? And does it matter? This Pulitzer-Prize winning drama, which premiered in a theater about the size of ArtsWest, went on to win the Tony Award for Best Play of the Year.
