“Theatre with a message doesn’t get much better than this. This production is an act of communion between audience and cast. Eleni Papaleonardos and Available Light throw the gauntlet down for the rest of their season and the year in Columbus art.”
– Richard Sanford, Columbus Underground
“A combination of uncomfortable comedy and thought-provoking analysis… encourages questioning the status quo… winningly mysterious.”
– Margaret Quamme, Columbus Dispatch
Revolt is an implosive new play about the conundrums of being female in the 21st century. Alice Birch has created a series of unsettling vignettes that ask how to revolutionize language, relationships, work, and life in general.
This wildly experimental and inventive new play will not be well behaved, because the revolution will not be performed for us as we sit passively by.
