The Revolutionists at Lost Nation Theater

by Lauren Gunderson

"Touching, timely, triumphant...heartwarming and hilarious – yet political, tough and thought-provoking." - Westerly Sun.

Four bold n' bodacious women try not to lose their heads in this irreverent, rebellious, girl-powered comedy set during the French Revolution. Amidst the Reign of Terror, four renegades—an assassin, a spy, a writer, and, of course, Marie Antoinette—hang out, plot murder, find friendship, and try to beat back extremist insanity in Paris. Armed with sharp wit and even sharper knives, this comedy of liberté, égalité, and sororité considers how we actually go about changing the world.

It’s a true story. Or total fiction.

From the playwright who gave us 2018's Silent Sky.
