Based on astonishingly true historical events, MARAT/SADE takes us to the French Mental Asylum of Charenton where the ever-controversial Marquis De Sade uses his fellow inmates to perform a twisted tale of political violence and personal rage. Deliciously raw and passionate, this watershed work of 1960s experimental protest theatre offers a timeless outcry against authority, conformity, and hypocrisy.
Featuring a mammoth cast of over twenty performers, our rendition is no less bold than the play itself weaving together live music and song with a whirlwind of evocative performance techniques including mime, interpretive movement, burlesque, and extensive stage combat all amidst inventive in-your-face staging that puts audiences right in the heart of the action for a theatrical experience like no other.
MARAT/SADE is directed by Subversive Theatre's Founder & Artistic Director Kurt Schneiderman* and stars Christopher Standart* as the Marquis De Sade, Lisa Vitrano as assassin Charlotte Corday, and Kevin Iuzzini as revolutionary leader Jean-Paul Marat with original music written and performed live by Moshe Shulman.
