The Ballad of Maria Marten
AUB Productions presents: The Ballad of Maria Marten
Play by Beth Flintoff
Directed by Luke Kernaghan
By arrangement with Nick Hern Books
The Ballad of Maria Marten is a revisionist retelling of a harrowing true crime in 1827, which sheds light on a complex tale of love, loss, prejudice, and patriarchal power.
Despite the fact that this is a true crime drama, this is also very much a story of female friendship and joy, and one that sadly resonates strongly today.
This play will be performed in AUB's own Palace Court Theatre. This theatre is a restoration project with huge potential to become a professional venue.
