Synopsis

Brown Girl in the Ring is a tragicomic monologue, a regal audience with Queenie, the lady with the blue blood and black butt. This marauding monarch, from a long forgotten branch of the royal family, likes rice’n’npeas with her caviar – and there’s no way she’s going to be swept under the carpet!
