The Madwoman of Chaillot

March 2007

By Jean Giraudoux  Directed by Mary T. Boyer

Mary T. Boyer strikes the set and ignites the satire in Theatre Unplugged's inaugural production, French dramatist Jean Giraudoux's The Madwoman of Chaillot. This play is a delicious satire about greed, power, big business, and the ability of the little people (mad though they may be) to win the day.

"Although Jean Giraudoux wrote The Madwoman of Chaillot in Paris during the Nazi Occupation, the play is as timeless, universal, and relevant as ever as it addresses such topics as war, the triumph of profit over social consciousness, the oil industry and the destruction of the environment," remarks Boyer, Artistic Director of Theatre Unplugged.
