Emilie: La Marquise du Châtelet Defends Her Life Tonight
Presented by Théâtre du Rêve (Theater of the Dream)
Join us for an exhilarating performance of "Emilie: La Marquise du Châtelet Defends Her Life Tonight," by Lauren Gunderson, performed in French with English supertitles!
18th century scientific genius Emilie du Châtelet is back and determined to answer the question she died with: love or philosophy, head or heart? In this highly theatrical rediscovery of one of history’s most intriguing women, Emilie defends her life and loves, and ends up with both a formula and a legacy that permeates history.
This production occurs multiple times throughout the Festival, and is also offered several times as a daytime student matinee. Please visit Théâtre du Rêve's website for more information.
