TOWN HALL THEATRE OPENS SEASON 2018/19 WITH
LAUREN GUNDERSON’S EXPLOSIVE COMEDY THE REVOLUTIONISTS

own Hall Theatre “Lost & Found” Season 2018/19 opens with the Bay Area Premiere of THE REVOLUTIONISTS, a bold and irreverent new comedy by Lauren Gunderson. THE REVOLUTIONISTS will have 12 performances, including two previews, September 27 through October 20, 2018, at Town Hall Theatre Company, 3535 School Street, in Lafayette, CA. Tickets are $18 - $30, and are available through the Box Office at (925) 283-1557 or online at https://www.TownHallTheatre.com.
THT’s production of THE REVOLUTIONISTS is directed by THT’s Artistic Director Susan E. Evans, and showcases a super-talented quartet of Bay Area performers: Sarah Mitchell as Olympe de Gouges, Kimberly Ridgeway as Marianne Angelle, Heather Kellogg as Charlotte Corday, and Suzie Shepard as Marie Antoinette. THT’s production also features an all-female creative team: Liliana Duque Piñeiro (scenic design); Keira Sullivan (lighting design); Lana Palmer (sound design); Hope Birdwell (costume design); and Debbie Shelley (properties design).

Liberté, égalité... sororité! American Theatre magazine named Gunderson the most popular playwright in the country for the 2017-18 season, with 27 productions; and Town Hall is thrilled to introduce Bay Area audiences to yet another work from the playwright. In The Revolutionists, Gunderson concocts a bold and brutal comedic quartet about three real-life and one invented (but could be real) badass women during the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror - Olympe de Gouges, activist playwright and feminist; Charlotte Corday, country girl and assassin; Marie Antoinette, fascinating former queen; and Marianne Angelle, black free woman from the Caribbean, a spy.
“ … a sassy, hold-on-to-your-seats theatrical adventure. … wonderfully wild and raucous… She puts four women on the stage who have a lot to say and turns them loose. It’s a wild ride …” Cincinnati Enquirer

“ … in this sparkling new work, politics is very, very funny.” – Houston Chronicle
