Emilie: La Marquise Du Ch Telet Defends Her Life Tonight Lauren Gunderson Samuel French Acting edition

Characters: 2m, 3f / Historic/Docu Drama Passionate. Brilliant. Defiant. Tonight, 18th century scientific genius Emilie du Châtelet is back and determined to answer the question she died with: love or philosophy, head or heart? In this highly theatrical rediscovery of one of history's most intriguing women, Emilie defends her life and loves; and ends up with both a formula and a legacy that permeates history. "Gunderson possesses an antic imagination that seeks to invent its own rules. As soon as we're drawn in, she shakes us and whisks us 10 or 15 paces ahead." -Los Angeles Times "The ambitious, non-linear experiment is a highly theatrical romp that literally crackles with electricity." -LA/OC Examiner
