THE REVOLUTIONISTS
written by Lauren Gunderson
directed by Caryl Butterley
Paris, France, 1793. The Reign of Terror.
Guillotines are big these days.
Playwright Olympe de Gouges, Haitian spy Marianne Angelle, assassin Charlotte Corday, and former queen Marie Antoinette hang out, plot, and ultimately bond, all while pushing back against the hyper-violent hypocritical male-dominated rhetoric of the times. However will modern audiences relate?! Extremism and legacy, art and activism, feminism and terrorism, individualism and sisterhood, all are examined in this smart, dream-infused comedy.
“A sassy, hold-on-to-your-seats theatrical adventure… wonderfully wild and raucous…”
– Cincinnati Enquirer
