The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette for 22 October 1997 has a review of a play, "A Private Audience with Queen Victoria" and subtitled,"An American Humorist in Queen Victoria's Court" by Marjorie Stewart. The free lance who wrote the review calls it "a small gem of bright talking, smart thinking theater." Mark Twain and Queen Victoria meet in this historical revisionism. "The play is framed by an introduction and conclusion that directly involve the 20th century audience. In between come a complication and resolution that are satisfyingly precise." "The complication is based on diversity, exemplified by Victoria's royal rules and Twain's aim to flout them... For all their differences, these to have both been touched by the gravity of grief, potentially exposing fundamental frailities that defy caste or custom." It is being presented on four Sundays between now and 14 December at Victoria Hall, 201 S. Winebiddle Street in Friendship (which I presume is a community and not an attribute).
