Intelligent, witty, funny and inspiring, Marki Shalloe’s Bald Grace, Pirate Queen is the true story of Grace O’Malley, an amazing woman who fought for her own rights as well as the rights of Ireland against Elizabethan England. A strong, feminine, no-nonsense woman, Grace disregarded stereotyped gender roles for women and sought a career in the predominantly male world of piracy. Bald Grace, Pirate Queen promises to be a thrilling event that encourages our audience members to further explore history’s forgotten women. Jenniffer J. Thusing directs.
