Marie Antoinette at Performing Institute Of Minnesota

In David Adjmis contemporary take on the young queen of France, Marie is a confection created by a society that values extravagance and artifice. But Frances love affair with the royals sours as revolution brews, and for Marie, the political suddenly becomes very personal. From the light and breezy banter at the palace to the surging chants of Libert, Egalit, Fraternit! in the streets, Marie Antoinette holds a mirror up to our contemporary society that might just be entertaining itself to death.
