Head Trick Theatre Presents: The Mad Bid

Event closed

Doors at 7, Reading at 8

Free admission - donations welcomed!

Head Trick Theatre announces a season of revolution and intrigue, titled “Taken for Granted." The 2024 season asks: what happens when the supporting roles start getting their own ideas?

The season opens in June with the world premiere of a new translation of The Mad Bid by Madame Ulrich (as a reading.) Head Trick will be returning to its old home venue of AS220 in downtown Providence for the first time since fall 2019’s Mrs. Dalloway.


The Mad Bid (translated to English for the first time by Rebecca Maxfield)

Meet the most popular man in Paris: he’s hot, he’s rich, he’s stylish, and he doesn’t exist. “He” is Angélique, in disguise to court Madame Argante, who has refused to let Angélique marry her son Éraste. It’s go time: before the end of the day, the young couple will have enlisted a bunch of other people in increasingly ridiculous disguises, plus a whole lot of money, for true love to come out on top.
