The Ladies of the Camellias

Legendary actresses Sarah Bernhardt and Eleanora Duse are forced to put aside their egos and share the spotlight when they are taken hostage in a Parisian theatre by a determined anarchist. In this flamboyant and chaotic comedy, leading men chew the scenery, an ambitious ingénue plots her future, and a playwright finally hears one line spoken just the way he wrote it. Yale Repertory Theater presents Lillian Groag’s The Ladies of the Camellias.
