1 WAM Theatre Remounts Drama About Voltaire s Mistress The Rogovoy Report, March 28, 2017 Playwright Lauren Gunderson (LENOX, Mass.) WAM Theatre stages a limited-run remount of the company s very successful 2013 production of Lauren Gunderson s Emilie: La Marquise Du Châtelet Defends Her Life
2 Tonight, directed by WAM artistic director Kristen van Ginhoven and featuring the entire original cast, at Shakespeare & Company s Tina Packer Playhouse from Thursday, March 30, to Sunday, April 9. Emilie Du Châtelet ( ), best known for her 15-year-liaison with Voltaire, a French Enlightenment writer, historian and philosopher, was far more than a great man s mistress. She became a highly regarded interpreter of modern physics and a master of mathematics and linguistics during the Age of Enlightenment. In the play, Emilie searches for a formula that will convince the world of her worth by tallying her achievements in love and philosophy. Emilie: La Marquise Du Châtelet Defends Her Life Tonight had its world premiere in 2009 at South Coast Repertory Theatre in Costa Mesa, Calif. The play has been described as fiercely inquisitive and joyfully sexy (San Francisco Chronicle) and an ambitious, highly theatrical romp that literally crackles with electricity (LA/OC Examiner). WAM Theatre s 2013 production was deemed Highly Imaginative. Highly Theatrical. by the Berkshire Eagle, which also awarded it Honorable Mention for Best Production and honored Kim Stauffer s performance as Emilie one of the year s best. We are very excited to announce that the entire original cast and the majority of the creative team are able to reassemble for this remount, said van Ginhoven, Giving another life to this audience favorite and critically acclaimed production has been a dream since I m not only honored to have WAM re-mount Emilie I m inspired, playwright Lauren Gunderson wrote. WAM s commitment to powerful stories combined with their artistic excellence and their civic impact makes me want to write more plays like Emilie about complex women changing the world. WAM truly manifests my belief that theatre actively and intentionally changes hearts, minds, and the future of a thoughtful and empathetic nation. Kim Stauffer
3 In keeping with WAM s double philanthropic mission, a portion of proceeds will be donated to the Flying Cloud Institute. WAM s donation will support scholarships for public school girls who attend Flying Cloud s after-school Girls Science Clubs, so girls who show promise and interest in science can join the Young Women in Science summer programs where they conduct experiments with women scientists and engineers working in laboratories at Simon s Rock College in Great Barrington. WAM and Flying Cloud Institute also have support from Mass Humanities to engage 25 girls who attend Reid Middle School in Pittsfield and are part of Flying Cloud s after-school STEAM Team. These girls will conduct science experiments and participate in theater activities that will heighten their appreciation when they attend a matinee of Emilie on April 6, with a post-show panel of women scientists. Kim Stauffer, whose credits include Mary Stuart and Macbeth at New York Classical Theatre, Crime and Punishment at Chester Theatre, and A Streetcar Named Desire and The Crucible at Barrington Stage Company, will reprise the role of Emilie. Voltaire will again be portrayed by Oliver Wadsworth, whose credits include the National Tour of Chitty, Chitty Bang, Bang, The Well at The Public Theatre and Fully Committed (Metroland Best Performance) at Capital Repertory Theatre.
