What did our critic think of MARAT/SADE at Teatr Wspolczesny Wroclaw? The play was written in 1963 by Peter Weiss, a German writer, and even though the fact that it's almost 60 years old, it hasn't lost any of its actuality. We deal here with the interpretation box. Marcin Liber interpreted the play that interprets the French Revolution but it's also about the revolution itself.

France's support of the nascent United States in 1778 is one of the great diplomatic triumphs of history, credited to the ambassadorial team of Benjamin Franklin, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. An exciting backstory to this miracle of statecraft is the platonic affair between Franklin and the flamboyant, beautiful Madame Brillon (Anne-Louise Hardancourt Brillon de Jouy).
