The Revolutionists
Charlotte Corday plots to assassinate one of the (French) Revolution’s most outspoken participants. Deposed Queen Marie Antoinette grapples with her losses. Playwright Olympe de Gouge attempts to write something that speaks to the moment and will stand the test of time. Marianne Angelle, Caribbean spy, fights to expand the nation’s notion of liberty to include women of color. Thrown together in one room, four vastly different women clash over the purpose of art, the use of violence, and a woman’s role in the midst of madness.
