comment |
Marie Antoinette is a stage musical by Michael Kunze and Sylvester Levay, of Elisabeth fame. It's based on the novel of the same name by Shūsaku Endō, which marks a difference from the creators' previously Euro-centric focus. It debuted in Tokyo, under the Toho Stage company in 2006, going on to an (unsuccessful) production in Bremen and Tecklenburg in Germany before being revamped for productions in Korea and Hungary before returning back to Toho, where it enjoyed a much warmer reception.It follows two characters, both with the same initials: The first is Marie Antoinette, who lives a lavish, but empty life in Versailles while pining for Axel von Fersen. The second is Margrid Arnaud, a woman who lives on the streets who becomes embittered and feeds the rebellion against Marie after a disastrous encounter at a party. Over the years, their lives cross into each other's on multiple occasions, and soon, Margrid will have to decide what the true meaning of "justice" is, as The French Revolution begins to reach a fever pitch... |

Alpha Bitch: Antoinette in the 2006 Toho and German productions, with a side of Rich Bitch. When Margrid runs into a ball she's attending, she mocks her appearance and then tosses champagne on her when she asks for just a little bit of bread. No wonder Margrid joins the revolution. |

Disappeared Dad: Margrid has one and is VERY bitter over it. "Papa? I have no papa." It turns out that the reason he disappeared is that he was the Emperor of Austria, even though he did pay for Margrid's tuition up until his death. |

Historical Hero Upgrade: As is per the norm with adaptations of the French Revolution, Marie Antoinette comes off quite well (though she does ask the other crowned heads of Europe to invade France, in keeping with history) and Fersen's endorsement of the Brunswick Manifesto is notably not included. |

comment |
Angry Mob Song: Naturally, given the setting. Most notable is probably "Ich Weine nicht Mehr," which starts off as a Margrid solo and ends with the entire crowd galvanized into action. "Frauen von Paris" is an odd example, because even though it has all the TRAPPINGS of an Angry Mob Song, the mob itself is only in it for the money. |

Historical Villain Upgrade: Suffice it to say, while the Revolution and the Duc d'Orléans are controversial to this day, they were not AS bad as they are generally portrayed here. This is especially evident in Orléans' case since, even in the 18th century, he was acquitted of any part in the March to Versailles, was never tied to the Affair of the Diamond Necklace, and openly remarked that he wanted to live in a country estate in England. |
