<description><![CDATA[ (Mar 28, 2012) SUNY Potsdam&apos;s Department of Theatre and Dance will present the play Marat/Sade by Peter Weiss this week. The show opens in the College Theater in Satterlee Hall tonight at 7:30 pm. Marat/Sade is set in a French insane asylum in the early 19th century. The characters are the inmates in that asylum who also become the actors in the Marquis de Sade’s play.The play-within-a play takes place during the turmoil of the French Revolution, as seen through the eyes of de Sade.

Written in 1963, and long associated with the upheavals of that decade, director Don Mandigo told Todd Moe that Marat/Sade is  ever more resonant in 2012.Note: this show is not recommended for young children.
