About
Jean Genet’s The Maids is a dark, seductive masterpiece of power, desire, and
illusion. Two servants, bound by ritual and resentment, enact dangerous fantasies of
rebellion against their mistress—until the line between performance and reality
begins to dissolve.
By turns hypnotic, unsettling, and fiercely poetic, The Maids exposes the fragility of
identity and the violence lurking beneath submission and control.
A gripping theatrical experience that is as provocative today as when it first shocked
audiences—this is Genet at his most dangerous.
THE MAIDS by Jean Genet, in a translation by Martin Crimp was first
performed at the Young Vic Theatre on 1 st July 1999.
