Four beautiful, badass women lose their heads in this irreverent, girl-powered comedy set during the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror. Playwright Lauren Gunderson brings together an assassin, a spy, a queen, and a writer to navigate the chaos of 1793 Paris.As the guillotine looms, Olympe de Gouges, Charlotte Corday, Marie Antoinette, and Marianne Angelle struggle to change the world while trying to stay alive. This dream-tweaked historical comedy is a sharp, witty, and poignant exploration of art, activism, and sisterhood. It’s a riotous call to action that proves some stories are worth dying for.
This is a Second Stage Production. While The Revolutionists is a comedy, it is set during the French Revolution's "Reign of Terror" and contains mature themes. We recommend this production for ages 13 and up. Second Stage productions typically have limited resources such as: smaller budgets, limited sets, props, costumes, and rehearsal time.
