This is Marie Antoinette as produced by Sinclair where it was reviewed "You've certainly kept your propaganda (socialism) out of this performance." This is the story of three human creatures caught in a whirlwind of social change which from their positions they could not understand it at all. There is the love story of Marie Antoinette, her lover, the Swedish noble, Count Fersen, and her uncaring husband, King Louis XVI. This play covers the failing monarchy, the loveless marriage, and Marie's doomed and unhappy life in the royal household. A clean very presentable copy in a Brodart mylar jacket.
