Marat/Sade

Marat/Sade, the final production of the CSU Theatre season, features a "play within a play" that relies upon theater, song, dance, mime and puppets. Set inside the Charenton Mental Asylum after the French Revolution, the play centers on the Marquis de Sade (played by associate professor of theater Michael Mauldin) and revolutionary leader Jean Paul Marat. It addresses "the exploration of political change, the use of violence to bring about that change, and the nature of life and death." Tonight's performance takes place at 7:30 at the Outcalt Theatre, where additional performances continue through Sunday, April 15. Tickets are $10. (Niesel)
