Jean Genet’s The Balcony (first performed 1957) is a much controversial play, not only because it a political play and depicts a revolution that failed, but also because it deals with certain “sacred” images and offers a social critique that wouldn’t be very pleasing to most social institutions. The Balcony, play by Jean Genet, produced and published in 1956 as Le Balcon. Influenced by the Theatre of Cruelty, The Balcony contains nine scenes, eight of which are set inside the Grand Balcony bordello. The brothel is a repository of illusion in a contemporary European city aflame with revolution. After the city’s royal palace and rulers.
