About the Play:
Marin Theatre presents the U.S. premiere of It’s True, It’s True, It’s True, a wildly original play detailing the riveting 1612 trial of Agostino Tassi for the rape of 17-year-old female Baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi. Conceived and written by Billy Barrett and Ellice Stevens of the U.K.’s Breach Theatre from centuries-old court transcripts, this powerful, fast- paced drama finds Gentileschi tasked with facing down her attacker within the constraints of the law and the gender expectations of the time.
It’s True, It’s True, It’s True tells the story of how one woman found revenge through her art, becoming one of the most successful painters of a generation. Hailed by The Guardian as “gripping, tremendous,” this work blends myth and history with contemporary commentary. Acclaimed director Rebecca Wear helms this bold and compelling production.
