A world premiere production by local St. Louis playwright John Wolbers!

Progress is an historical and hysterical behind-the-scenes look into the sacrifices, subterfuge and sheer will that went into making Queen Elizabeth I one of the most iconic and successful world leaders in history. Set “backstage” in her private chamber, we see Queen Bess and her close-knit circle of women navigate the threats raging right outside their door: war, plague, and worst of all - marriage. But when the plague breeches their threshold, Elizabeth and her retinue must go “on progress” outside the city walls to survive. As the pressures of quarantine, international alliances, and internal struggles rise, these women must decide whether they can continue living with the roles and rules that have defined them or forge their own paths forward.
