Lauren Gunderson’s The Revolutionists is a brilliant, witty, and fast-paced meta-theatrical comedy that reimagines the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror through the eyes of four historical women—playwright Olympe de Gouges, assassin Charlotte Corday, former queen Marie Antoinette, and Haitian rebel Marianne Angelle—as they fight for equality and strive to make their voices heard in a violent, male-dominated world.
