[THEATER PREVIEW] Annette Miller to play Martha Mitchell at Shakespeare & Company
7.30.06
Outrageous and courageous, she's a natural for the stage
The theatrical Martha Mitchell gets her due in a new play
By Mark Feeney, Globe Staff
Long before there was ``Desperate Housewives, " the nation thrilled to an even more outrageous series. Call it ``Desperate Cabinet Wife. "
The star was Martha Mitchell . She was the wife of Richard Nixon's first attorney general, the famously tight lipped John Mitchell , a key figure in the Watergate scandal. Martha was famously loose-lipped, and her flamboyant outspokenness -- on everything from the Vietnam War to Supreme Court nominations to Nixon's criminality -- made her a quasi-folk hero in the early '70s.
On Tuesday , the world-premiere production of Jodi Rothe's play, ``Martha Mitchell Calling," begins previews at Shakespeare & Company in Lenox. It's paired on a double bill with Normi Noel's ``No Background Music, " a one-woman performance based on an Army nurse's experiences during the Vietnam War.

There was another one-act play/monologue about Martha Mitchell that was already being performed in Boston in early 2006, "Matha Mitchell In Mostly Her Own Words" by Rosanna Yamagiwa Alfaro.
