2011-2012 Season

Marat Sade:  The Persecution and Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat As Performed by the Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton Under the Direction of the Marquis De Sade

by Peter Weiss' Marat Sade

J Studio
October 13 - 23, 2011

MARAT SADE is a play-within-a-play and is not historical drama.  Its thought is as modern as today's police states and The Bomb; its theatrical impact has everywhere been called a major innovation.  It is total theatre; philosophically problematic, visually terrifying, it engages the eye, the ear and the mind with every imaginable dramatic device, technique and stage picture, even including song and dance.  The play is basically concerned with the problem of revolution.  Are the same things true for the masses and for their leaders?  And where, in modern times, lie the borderlines of sanity?
