SUMMARY:Madam Queen
DESCRIPTION:Soul Rep Theatre is proud to present Madam Queen\, a fully staged world-premiere production of the final work by the late\, beloved Dallas playwright diannetucker. This historical drama–developed with support from the TACA New Works grant–marks the culmination of a year-long creative journey and honors the enduring legacy of a visionary artist whose influence helped shape Soul Rep from its earliest days. \nInspired by the life of Hannah Elias\, widely regarded as one of the wealthiest Black women of her era\, Madam Queen brings to the stage a powerful portrait of ambition\, resilience\, and survival in turn-of-the-century New York. Through a bold and richly layered narrative\, the play explores race\, power\, identity\, and the cost of claiming space in a world determined to deny it.
