CalArts School of Theater Presents: The Maids

THE MAIDSWRITTEN BY JEAN GENET TRANSLATED FROM FRENCH BY BERNARD FRECHTMAN DIRECTED BY MANON MANAVIT Sisters Claire and Solange live in the lap of luxury, but it isn’t theirs -- it is the home of their employer, the glamorous Madame. When the lady of the house is away, the two maids play pretend, taking turns enacting fantasies as they dress up in Madame’s magnificent costumes. It’s all in good fun until the game takes a turn; the line between fantasy and reality blurs, and, ultimately, disappears. Illuminating the dizzying balance between class and power, The Maids dares us to break the conventions that bind us.
