They have denounced her lover to the police by means of anonymous letters. Upon learning that he is to be released for lack of proof, they realize their betrayal will be discovered, and they try to murder Madame. They fail and want to kill themselves. Finally, one of them takes her life, and the other, left alone and drunk with glory, tries, by the pomp of her posturings and language, to be equal to the magnificent destiny that awaits her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Katie Rosin: <a href=\"mailto:katie@kampfirefilmspr.com\">katie@kampfirefilmspr.com<\/a><br \/>\nWebsite\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.brownpapertickets.com\/event\/101818\" target=\"_self\">http:\/\/www.brownpapertickets.com\/event\/101818<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jean Genet\u2019s THE MAIDS:\u00a0 directed by Tracy Cameron Francis, starring Bushra Laskar.
