Kitchener-Waterloo Little Theatre announces the on-line premiere of "The Tragedy of Mariam" Nov. 1

[Diana Lobb]

Kitchener-Waterloo Little Theatre, in partnership with Midtown Radio, announces the on-line premiere of the first episode of KWLT's Black Box Radio: "The Tragedy of Mariam," by Elizabeth Carey.

Directed by Diana Lobb, "The Tragedy of Mariam" tells the story of the death of Mariam, the second wife of Herod the Great, the King of Palestine from 39-4 BC. The play opens with news of Herod’s death. Seizing the opportunity of Herod’s demise, his friends and family engage in a series of illicit affairs and intrigues. Mariam, most importantly, admits she never loved Herod.  To the surprise of the characters, Herod is alive and returns. Herod’s sister, Salome, plots to get rid of Mariam by spreading rumours of her unfaithfulness.  Herod believes his sister’s lies and orders Mariam’s execution. After her death, he realizes he has been deceived and is left with eternal regret and remorse.

This is a free event starting at 7pm, November 1st.  Listeners can tune in to kwlt.org or midtownradio.ca to listen to the show.
