Therèse Racquin

Olney Theatre Center presents the acclaimed 1997 adaptation by Neal Bell of Emile Zola?s classic gothic novel Therèse Raquin ? a flammable combination of feverish lust, murder, and guilt in 19th century Paris. Chillingly poetic and passionate, it is the story of a young, repressed wife who conspires with her lover to murder her husband.
