Strike Anywhere Productions Presents "Fetes De La Nuit"

Strike Anywhere Productions—a project of the Shunpike Presents:
Fetes de la Nuit
Written by Charles L. Mee

June 7, 2006—Fetes de la Nuit is a theatrical collage of tango and temptation; corsets and can-can; passion; pain and of course; Paris. Paris is showcased as the tempestuous international capital of love (and hate) that arouses our deepest conflicts and desires. Part titillating spectacle, part heated debate, Fetes de la Nuit will ignite a myriad of your fires.

“Louis XIV used to stage what he called Fetes de la Nuit at Versailles—spectacles full of music, dance, hunting dogs and fireworks. Here are Fetes as he might have staged them today, with the music and dance and rage of the Third World rising up amidst the stereotypes of old Paris.”-Charles L. Mee.

This play contains strong language, adult themes, explicit sexuality and partial nudity.
