Though not as powerful as the play, even if there's the same director and performers, it still connects with a modern audience.

Aggressively bizarre but fascinating.
September 27, 2007 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
Told in rhyme and song, Marat/Sade entertains, informs, moves and horrifies in equal measure.
