The monologue "Mary said what she said", about the British beheaded Queen Maria Stuart, is one of the performing arts that visits the Bergman Festival and is performed on the national stage 8–10 December.

Isabelle Huppert has starred in films such as "The Pianist" and "Violette – The Poison Killer". She has been nominated for an Academy Award and awarded a Golden Globe.

"This type of high-quality international guest performance is a very important part of Dramaten's mission to further develop the idea of what performing arts can be in 2023," says Mattias Andersson, theatre director and artistic director of Dramaten.

There will also be a guest appearance of the show "Liebestod" in September, with Spanish actor Angélica Liddell. At the end of October, South Korean performance artist Jaha Koo will perform a work that problematizes the influence of the Western theater tradition on Korean theater.
