Award-winning one-woman show, bringing royal scandal and the high seas to life. When Sweden's 19-year-old Princess Cecilia Vasa is caught with a lover in 1559, Europe thinks the scandal will tame the harlot. But Cecilia is just getting started. Condemned, filthy rich and yearning for freedom, she enters Renaissance Europe where war, chastity and men rule. Could friendship with Queen Elizabeth I of England grant her the independence she craves – or why not a life of piracy? Translated into English.
