Shotgun Players opens the 2023 Season with a quest for love. De Marivaux's 'The Triumph of Love' follows the fierce and driven princess Leonide as she adopts the dress and prerogatives of a man, invades the retreat of a rationalist philosopher who hates love (and her!), and conspires to win the object of her desire. As the emotional stakes rise, gender confusion abounds in hilarious and dramatic ways. Starring Veronica Renner ('Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812'). Playing now through April 23, 2023

founding artistic director of Shotgun Players Patrick Dooley joined KRON 4’s Kyla Grogan to discuss the upcoming performances of this hit play. Watch the clip to see a sneak peek of one of the scenes.
