The Reign of Terror gets a riotous, sharp-tongued makeover. Four badass women—a playwright, an assassin, a spy, and a queen—lose their heads (figuratively and almost literally) in this dream-tweaked version of the French Revolution. A fast-paced comedy that finds humor even in the darkest of times.

The Revolutionists

Margaret Chase Smith was a trailblazer. In 1940, she became the first woman elected to Congress from Maine - and nine years later, the first woman from the state elected to the U.S. Senate. But it was in 1950 that she made her most defining mark: standing alone on the Senate floor to deliver her historic "Declaration of Conscience," a bold rebuke of Senator Joseph McCarthy's campaign of fear and intimidation during the post-World War II Red Scare.

Conscience

Wendy MacLeod's comedy, The Laugh Track, takes us behind the scenes of "I Love Lucy". Based on the real-life experiences of Hollywood's first female TV writer, Madelyn Pugh, this play shines light on the inner workings of America's beloved sitcom and the woman who punched up the jokes, fought for her career, and paved the way for women in the writers room. Fast-paced and full of wit, The Laugh Track brings familiar characters to life, while proving that comedy is not a man's job.
