Her reign is so successful that an entire era is named after her: the Elizabethan Age. Friedrich Schiller, however, presents her to us in Maria Stuart as a fickle, unscrupulous and deceitful tyrant. Time then to bring down Schiller's misogynistic tragedy and counter it with a humorous-feminist alternative – an Elizabeth of the 21st century. What does female self-assertion mean today in a world dominated by men? How is power reflected in the everyday lives of each of us? The author Gornaya and actress Milva Stark engage with these questions. And they don't shy away from their personal (professional) everyday life either. Elizabeth – I'm not a Bitch grapples with rule and responsibility and asks about the relationship between the sexes: Can we free ourselves from role assignments and meet as human beings?
