The Table Round & The Siege Perilous

by Emily C. A. Snyder

Weaving together multiple Arthurian legends, including the Grail Quest, Lancelot and Guinevere, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and the fall of Arthur, this play considers the strength and failure of patriarchy and politics in an epic two-part duology.
