Conquest of the Universe
Conquest of the Universe or, as Ludlam not so subtly titled his production in part to distinguish it from Vaccaro's, When Queens Collide, is Ludlam's second play. The epic collage possesses an amorphous associative dramaturgy and is anarchistic, bombastic, arcane yet futuristic, beyond raunchy, frantic yet languid, scatological and downright dirty, drug influenced and indicative of the far flung sources Ludlam fodders throughout his subsequent plays. A mix of Marlowe's Tamburlaine and Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus and Hamlet, the play also draws Hitler's speeches and writings, TV commercials of the day and newspaper help wanted ads into its orbit. Ludlam's pop counter-cultural Elizabethan complications occur in outer space where Tamberlaine's hubris now extends to the subjugation of planets in a fierce battle of sexual conquests and imperialism.
