The Story
Directed by Allan Byrne, the final theatre production of the CSU Theatre season is a groundbreaking "play-within-a-play" that uses every element of theatre, including song, dance, mime, and puppets, and places the audience inside the Charenton Mental Asylum after the French Revolution. In this asylum, the Marquis de Sade (played by Associate Professor of Theatre Dr. Michael Mauldin) directs the inmates in his play about the assassination of the revolutionary leader Jean-Paul Marat, opening up the exploration of political change, the use of violence to bring about that change, and the nature of life and death.

"It is a play dense with experiences, it is total theatre, engaging our senses and our intellect, funny, terrifying, sexual, savage, and exhilarating." - Director Allan Byrne
