Marie Antoinette

Time Out New York

“Ireland gives one of the rawest and most mercurial performances I’ve seen from her, a symphony of tics, comic bluster, false starts and cascades of acid regret…Her Marie rules.”

New York Magazine. Critics’ Pick.

“From Valley Girl comedy (“the linzer tarts omigod”) to mad-scene finale, Marin Ireland nails the Queen of France in David Adjmi’s marvelous, disturbing, revisionist take.”

Entertainment Weekly

“Marie Antoinette, playwright David Adjmi’s modern-flair retelling of the famously reviled, beheaded teen queen, seems to land smack-dab in 2013’s ticker of news events, and we’re all the better for it.”

New York Post

“Invigorating, thanks to a remarkable cast and director Rebecca Taichman’s stylish production.”

The New Yorker

“Adjmi’s brilliance is to use trashy vernacular speech to allude to the way history trashes us.”
