The Women of Paris (The Secrets of Mata Hari) at TADA! Theater

The Women of Paris (The Secrets of Mata Hari)
Writer: Paul K. Smith
Director: Ioan Ardelean

Paris. 1917.
We meet Mata Hari. Marie Curie. Colette.
We meet them as women reclaiming dreams they've shelved.
Reawakening hidden selves. Breaking free. Finding their wings to fly.

Marie Curie harnesses science to save wounded young soldiers.
Sarah Bernhardt gives acting lessons to a courtesan.
Isadora Duncan creates modern dance.
Coco Chanel invents the little black dress.
Each woman creates separate social roles. Roles at war with each other.

Breaking free of convention brings down the wrath of society:
One woman is shot for doing forbidden things.
Yet they survive. They prevail.
Along the way, these women also create Paris.
