The result is a tumultuous, fascinating 16-year love affair that is wonderfully portrayed in Arthur Giron’s Emilie’s Voltaire...The captivating Emilie’s Voltaire is an inside look at genius and the underlying emotions that feed it. Definitely a bit of history you’re pleased to discover.” -OffBroadway.com
