Set to rock regional venues this Spring, Bloody Mary: Live! sees Mary Tudor work on her
reputation in an iconic stand-up show as she heads on a revolutionary UK tour! Produced by Part
of the Main, a Pleasance London Associate Company for 2022-2024 and funded by Arts Council
England, Bloody Mary: Live! is a gleefully vicious comedic special that tackles the drama every queenager has to deal with, from divorced parents, sibling rivalry to first crushes and burningheretics at the stake.
Bloody Mary: Live! strives to resonate with anyone who has ever struggled growing up, or ever
wanted to burn it all down. This witty, irreverent blend of stand-up comedy and a one-woman
show is written and will be performed by Olivia Miller, an American artist based in New York
City.
Previous work by Part of the Main includes Fritz and Matlock, which garnered two Offie
Nominations at the Pleasance and was shortlisted for the Brighton Fringe Award for Excellence
at the Edinburgh Fringe, and The Tinker, which was shortlisted for the Theatre Royal
Haymarket/Masterclass Pitch Your Play competition and longlisted for Finborough Theatre’s
ETPEP Award.
Writer Olivia Miller comments, I’m thrilled for my favourite misunderstood punk princess to be
resurrected once more. Stepping into Mary’s platform goth boots to talk about everything from
boys to burnings at the stake is an honour I take very seriously, especially in front of a British
audience that is perhaps more nimble at fact checking me than American audiences.
