←Recommendations of The Fall of Anne Boleyn; Presented as a Modern Day FaceTime Call

A brilliant zoom production on the fall of Anne Boleyn, with high tensions and quick dialogue that keep you on the edge of your seat. Samantha Oty gives us a clever perspective on this historical drama, creating a fun and relatable situation, well-balanced with impending chills of tragedy.

Samantha Oty’s The Fall of Anne Boleyn is an ingenious twist on a historical tragedy, reimagined through the lens of modern technology. The Zoom format brings both humor and tension to Anne’s downfall, as the characters navigate their agendas in a hilariously relatable, contemporary setting. Oty perfectly balances the comedy and tragedy, making the familiar story feel fresh and engaging.

The use of modern technology brings an element of comedy to what remains the tragic fall of Anne Boleyn. The comic and tragic elements are balanced with great skill. All three of these characters and their differing agendas are well drawn. I would love to experience this work in its intended Zoom format.

The historical events of this play, already fascinating, are made fresh in this modern retelling. Samantha manages to keep the tension high while providing plenty of humor. I worried about these characters at the same time as I laughed at their predicaments. This would be such an interesting, fun addition to any play festival. I'd also like to see a longer version. Bravo!

Samantha Oty's modern retelling of one of Henry VIII's many women is freshly comedic yet still carries the tragedy a situation like Anne's calls for.
