 Rating:  - Simply amazing...I'll admit, Marat/Sade is one of the most complex plays ever written, but it is a dream for any actor! I'm currently playing the Marquis de Sade in the play, and i've never been so challeneged in all my life! For the majority of the roles, not only do you need to play the character, you need to play the inmate of a lunatic asylum playing the character! For example, the inmate playing Jean-Paul Marat suffers from Paranoia, which must be taken into consideration during characterisation.

You will need to have read your back ground on the french revolution. The lack of punctuation, with its cleverly rhymed sentences adds to the perpective that you are actually there at the Asylum of Charenton. The language used is very very difficult to understand and it helps reading bits over and over again. The best way to really enjoy this play is to act this out using the way of Stanislasky, Bertold Brect and Artaud. These Techniques can be used in a variety of ways and you can understand the out come of the Plat Within a Play which is really individual. |
