By Pierre Marivaux

ABBEY PREMIERE
You are invited to an experiment...
Four orphans (2 boys and 2 girls) have been raised in isolation, from the world and from each other.
How will they respond to their first loves and lusts? And to their first lies?
An aristocrat releases four human guinea pigs into a sinister Garden of Eden to consider the age old question: who is more faithful in love, man or woman?
Watch temptation, jealousy and revenge strike as they struggle to triumph in love.
La Dispute is a glittering journey into the dark but prophetically modern imagination of Marivaux, the man who carried French comedy into the eighteenth century.
Wayne Jordan makes his Abbey debut directing this funny, erotic and cruel masterpiece.
