July 1793, a small troupe gave a show in tribute to Jean-Paul Marat, journalist, revolutionary and deputy, murdered in his bathtub two weeks earlier.
The story of Marat's journey takes us through the first four years of the French Revolution, from the storming of the Bastille to the advent of the Republic. The Boudry-born journalist intervenes in major public debates, from the price of food to the question of slavery or war, themes which still resonate today.
