Synopsis: | Set in the historical asylum of Charenton, Marat/Sade is play within a play. The Marquis de Sade, the most notorious inmate of the asylum, decides to put on a stage play. The director of the asylum agrees as long as de Sade adheres to certain conditions. The Marquis writes the text and directs the other psychiatric patients in a play based on the life and assassination of the Jean-Paul Marat. As the production progresses, the inmates become more and more possessed by the violence of the play and become extremely difficult to control. Finally, all chaos breaks loose | |||||
