Two plays from Rolland’s cycle of the Revolution, written for a theatre of the people. The Fourteenth of July puts the crowd itself at the centre as Paris storms the Bastille and its governor De Launey refuses to surrender; Danton follows the struggle between Danton and Robespierre. An introduction surveys Rolland’s dramatic theories.
