Summary: Revolution
Comment: WOW. I read this play for an english class and irght now we are watching a production of it. As an activist I have to say this play captures many of the tensions in all schools of the left. Performed in the early 60s, it reveals the debate that raged between the 'old' and 'new' left. All I can say is unbeleivable.

Summary: One of the most haunting plays of all time.
Comment: Written in the early sixties, the play frequently
abbreviated as Marat/Sade is set in 1808, yet many of the
comments are distinctly directed toward current events,
notably the upheavals in Eastern Europe. Now, with the
fall of the Soviet Union behind us, the play takes on even
greater significance. Despite the reassurances of the asylum
director, whether a mere fifteen years or well over two
hundred years have passed, the nature of revolutions, and
the fanatics who cause them, has not changed. Combining
historical events with modern theatrics, Weiss has produced
what has been and will continue to be one of the most
disturbing, as well as one of the most important works
ever to be performed on stage.
