NEFERTITI SPEAKS (a 2-min monologue)

    What ARE the statues and busts we see in countless museums really thinking? I love the idea that Egypt's Queen Nefertiti objects to her placement in a gallery filled with Greek statues. This is an excellent monologue that starts with Nefertiti's clear insights and reasoning, and ends the only way it can--with her emphatic decision to take action.

    The power of a great queen does not diminish. Nor does the power of a great playwright. Michele Clarke has captured both and finishes with a knock out punch!

    Hilarious and thoughtful. What a joy to see the intersection of art, intellect, and humor.

Character Information

  • NEFERTITI
    Thutmosis’ bust of Nefertiti.
    For context: Nefertiti's head is perched on a small pedestal, within a glass box at the center of a gallery. She stares ahead, through a door flanked by two Greek statues. She looks down a long hallway and her view is permanently fixed on a statue of the Greek god Helios, placed at the hallway’s end, in the South Dome gallery.
