The True History of the Tragic Life and Triumphant Death of Julia Pastrana, the Ugliest Woman in the World
T01641987877
The play tells the true story of a 19th Century South American Indian who was sold by her family to the owner of a travelling freak show where she was billed as 'The ugliest Woman in the World'. Performed in the pitch black, the play is
a remarkable riposte to anyone who thought that drama performed without any visual could only amount to a radio play.
