A rollicking, no-holds-barred ahistorical romp that aims for a blazing world of glory

-THE GLOBE AND MAIL

Meet Margaret Cavendish, 17th-century philosopher, poet, playwright – a scandalous Jill-of-all-Trades and mistress of none. In her unapologetic pursuit of fame, Madge ditches her dysfunctional family to join the court of an unruly Queen and leave her mark on history.

This bawdy comedy is loosely based on history, but more than anything it’s a celebration of a wild woman who never settled for anything less than achieving her dreams.

Paying homage to Jane Austen and Tina Fey in the same breath, this laugh out loud contemporary-period mashup suggests that perhaps a woman’s hunger for unbridled attention is not so shallow, after all.

ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHT

Rose is an award winning writer of stage and screen. Her musical After the Rain, co-written with composer Suzy Wilde, premiered at Tarragon Theatre co-produced by the Musical Stage Company.

Her comedic plays include: Mad Madge, Innocents (winner of the Playwrights Guild of Canada’s Tom Hendry Comedy Award), and Killer Queens (a murder mystery). Dramatic works include: Milo 2.0, and Lo (or Dear Mr. Wells) which was nominated for the Dora Mavor Moore Award for Outstanding New Play.

Her plays have been seen in theatres across the country including here at Neptune Theatre, Crow’s Theatre, Nightwood, Globus Theatre, Great Canadian Theatre Company, and the National Arts Centre. She has twice been named a top ten theatre artist by Glen Sumi and is published with Scirocco.

On behalf of the Board of Directors and the entire Neptune Theatre community, it is my pleasure to welcome you to Mad Madge by Rose Napolian irreverent, imaginative, and joyfully defiant celebration of a woman who refused to play by the rules.

Margaret Cavendish was a force far ahead of her time: a philosopher, poet, scientist, author, and playwright in an era when women were expected to be none of those things. This production embraces her boldness with a bawdy comedic flair - loosely rooted in history but driven by the thrill of a woman fearlessly pursuing her dreams. With a spirited wink to both Jane Austen and Tina Fey, Mad Madge reminds us that a desire to be seen, heard, and unapologetically oneself is anything but shallow.

At Neptune, we champion stories that provoke laughter, spark conversation, and resonate across centuries. Mad Madge does all of this with wit, warmth, and a wild sense of play. We are thrilled to share it with you.

Thank you for supporting live theatre and for being part of this vibrant community. Enjoy the show - and the glorious riot that is Mad Madge.

Welcome to Neptune Theatre, and welcome to the wonderfully wild world of Mad Madge! We’re so glad you’ve joined us for this playful, unapologetic romp through history - Rose Napoli’s clever, bawdy, and big-hearted celebration of a woman who simply refused to be ordinary (or quiet).

Margaret Cavendish did almost everything a 17th-century woman was told not to do - and we are very glad she did. With its delicious blend of contemporary wit and period flair (think Jane Austen with a dash of Tina Fey), Mad Madge invites us to laugh loudly, cheer boldly, and maybe even rethink what it means to take up space in the world.

At Neptune, we strive to create theatre that feels alive, surprising, and deeply fun - and this production is exactly that. Whether this is your first visit or your fiftieth, we’re grateful you’re here to share in the magic of live performance with us tonight.

Now, sit back, relax, and enjoy the rebellion.
