Wildwoman

A seductively funny, daring twist on regal history.

Wildwoman
A Gateway Theatre and Alberta Theatre Projects Production
March 26 – April 4, 2026

In Wildwoman, we follow the story of Catherine de’ Medici, the young, newlywed of King Henry II of France, who thinks her life at court will be a fascinating forum of political discourse. Instead, her singular function is to be a baby-making machine for male heirs. Even the other women at her side, a scheming lady-in-waiting and the king’s power-hungry mistress, seem to mostly fend for themselves. The only kinship she finds is with the paperback-romance hot, head-to-toe hair wildman kept in the dungeon as one of the king’s collection of caged oddities. The power and cruelty of the French Royal Court awakens Catherine’s own wild side, and once she unleashes it, no one is safe from her vengeful wrath.

Acclaimed Canadian playwright, Kat Sandler, brings her trademark rapid-fire wit to this salacious saga of an infamous bad girl who could not be tamed. A viciously funny and sexy thrill ride, Wildwoman is about what happens when we let the monster out. Being bad never felt so good.
