The Last Victorian

The Last Victorian is a world-premiere play by J.B. Miller, presented as part of the Washington Stage Guild’s 41st season. Set in the world of struggling antique dealers, the story follows two partners—both in business and in life—who unexpectedly inherit the world’s oldest person. Their initial scheme to monetize the elderly woman quickly unravels as doubts arise about her true age and origin, causing the partners to turn against one another. The tables turn again when the mysterious woman reveals that she may, in fact, be exactly who she claims to be, leaving the audience to decide where the truth lies. Directed by Laura Giannarelli, this production blends dark comedy with themes of greed, trust, and identity.
