The Saint of Scandal: The True(ish) Story of La Maupin is a solo theatrical storytelling performance exploring the outrageous real life of 17th-century stage performer, duelist, and cultural rebel Julie d’Aubigny.
Blending historical narrative, wit, and modern perspective, the piece follows La Maupin’s defiance of gender norms, her scandalous love affairs, and her fearless pursuit of artistic freedom in a world determined to control her. From the stages of Paris to the dueling grounds, she carved a life that refused to conform.
Told through direct address and embodied storytelling, this performance blurs the line between history and confession. With humor, intimacy, and a wink to modern audiences, La Maupin’s story becomes both a celebration of defiance and a closer look at how legends — and women — are shaped by the stories told about them.
Bold, funny, and unapologetic, this show invites audiences into a world of swords, spectacle, and rebellion — where identity is performance and survival is an art.
Recommended for mature audiences (13+). Contains references to sexuality, historical violence, and adult themes.
