A play about Manet and his painted ladies. Victorine, whose unapologetic nudity scandalised society; the aristocratic and beautiful Berthe Morisot; and his wife, Suzanne, each posed for the witty, well-born painter, and each demanded more than he was prepared to give. Often considered the inventor of modern art, Manet's struggles between passion for his work and desire for love, self-realisation and the capacity to love, remain those of contemporary life.T1178588309Producer 71A Productions.
