Photos 1: Marat Sade, RSC 5Oth Anniversary:
" The play's technical execution was magnificently high-tech and of today. Garance Marneur's astonishing transformation of the Royal Shakespeare's Theatre very structure into an undulating light-nightmare offered a visual coup d'état. " BRITISH THEATRE GUIDE
“A great set design was complemented by terrific projection which at one point made the balconies around the theatre appear to rise and fall as though in a silent earthquake. An extraordinary effect. "

" Having the 'inmates' all around us gave off an intimidating, uncomfortable feeling, having ladders on the stage above the audience so the performers can occasionally climb up and look down on us."
