"EMILIE'S VOLTAIRE" is now playing at the The Samuel Beckett Theatre, stars Michael Medeiros and Amy Lynn Stewart. The Samuel Beckett Theatre is located at 410 West 42nd Street in Manhattan.
EMILIE'S VOLTAIRE runs now through February 7th, 2009.
Set during the French Enlightenment, the play chronicles the volcanic, law-breaking, sexually-driven, intellectually-fuelled, sixteen-year love affair between Francois-Marie Arouet (VOLTAIRE) and Gabrielle Emilie Le Tonnelier de Breteuil, Marquise du Chatelet (EMILIE).
Press notes declare, "EMILIE'S VOLTAIRE" is an absolutely true account of what could be termed the Eighteenth Century's sexual Bonnie and Clyde. He is a philosopher. An upstart poet. A staggeringly prolific writer. An essayist. A free thinker. A civil libertarian. A blasphemer. A worshipper of Venus. A corrupter of morals. A playwright. He is on fire at the peak of his powers both intellectual and financial. He is running from the law".
Tickets are $46.25 and available by visiting TicketCentral.
