An uber-theatrical delight that is epic in scope in both form and content; that explores, explodes, and refracts history; and that resonates outside of its historical context in the way is explores gender identity, gender performance, and sexuality. It also begins hilarious and has a surprisingly and seriously touching coda of a final scene. A feast, no doubt, for actors, designers, and directors alike.

This play takes you on a thrilling, sexy, swashbuckling wild ride! (on a ship of course) Through a reimagined "what could have happened" between Anne Bonny and Mary Read, SMJ deliciously and poignantly explores how deep and fulfilling relationships can be when we are able to truly celebrate our authentic selves and allow ourselves to be loved for it.

If you're looking to fuel your pirate-themed gender euphoria, look no further than this love story. SMJ expertly combines humor with unflinching honesty — and infuses surrealism into this history — leaving you with the feeling you've gained something you didn't know you were missing.
