Back Stage

What do you get when 50 brides are about to be forced into marriage with 50 cousins? A wildly exuberant and vibrant theatrical take on the timeless war between the sexes! “Fasten your seat belts” for Charles Mee’s Big Love – an explosive, uproarious re-imagining of the oldest surviving Greek drama, Aeschylus’ The Suppliant Women. It’s volatile yet touching, comedic yet horrific, homicidal yet romantic. A surprise-filled expression of the game of love, exploring the differences between men and women, life and human nature. Join us for this vivid romp mixed with passion, song, poetic soliloquies, frenzied action, dance, sex, dizzying acrobatics, unexpected romance, mayhem, and even cake fights! In the end, you’ll find that love, of any kind, is all that vitally matters.
