| Synopsis: | Set during the French Enlightenment, the play chronicles the volcanic, law-breaking, sexually-driven, intellectually-fuelled, 16-year love affair between Francois-Marie Arouet (Voltaire) and Gabrielle Emilie Le Tonnelier de Breteuil, Marquise du Chatelet. It is an absolutely true account of what could be termed the 18th century's sexual Bonnie and Clyde. He was a philosopher. An upstart poet. A staggeringly prolific writer. An essayist. A free thinker. A civil libertarian. A blasphemer. A worshipper of Venus. Corrupter of morals. A playwright. He is on fire at the peak of his powers both intellectual and financial. He is running from the law. She is arguably the most beautiful woman in France suffering the most tedious marriage in Europe. She is an independent upstart who bullied her father into secreting the finest minds on the Continent to their country estate in order to quench her undying thirst for knowledge; the result being that she has emerged as one of the most profound physicists in the world. She is broke and has been applying her mathematical wizardry and her famously rouged décolletage at the royal gambling tables. To no avail. The Queen of France cheats at cards and wants to collect on the debt that amounts to a small fortune. She is running from the law. The play begins as Emilie breaks into Voltaire's Parisian apartments through a secret door with a key she convinces Madame de Pompadour to fork over. As Emilie sees it; she's got brains and beauty, and Voltaire's got money. It is New Year's Eve 1733. The bells of Notre Dame are ringing eleven. The rest is history. - press release | |||||
