BPA Auditions For THE REVOLUTIONISTS

Bainbridge Performing Arts is pleased to announce audition dates November 10 & 12 for THE REVOLUTIONISTS, directed by Kate Carruthers. Four beautiful, badass women lose their heads in this irreverent, girl-powered comedy set during the French Revolution's Reign of Terror. Playwright Olympe de Gouges, assassin Charlotte Corday, former queen (and fan of ribbons) Marie Antoinette, and Haitian rebel Marianne Angelle hang out, murder Marat, and try to beat back the extremist insanity in 1793 Paris. This grand and dream-tweaked comedy is about violence and legacy, art and activism, feminism and terrorism, compatriots and chosen sisters, and how we actually go about changing the world. It's a true story. Or total fiction. Or a play about a play. Or a raucous resurrection...that ends in a song and a scaffold.

Run dates are March 8, 9, 10, 15, 16, 17, 22, 23, and 24, with a Pay-What-You-Can Preview March 7. Rehearsals extend January 14 through March 6, Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays @ 6:40 - 9:40 p.m. plus Saturdays @ 11:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
