"In February, 2025, Heineman's play, "Terror is the Order of the Day: A Tragedy of the French Revolution," was performed at the Flea Theater in New York City. Directed by Tea Alagic, the play covers one of the most dramatic and consequential periods in modern history: the downfall of King Louis XVI to the founding the First Republic to popular insurrections driving the Revolution to violence to implementation of the Terror to the downfall and execution of Robespierre. The play is a "societal" tragedy--the devolution of France from idealism to death and destruction---and an "ensemble" tragedy where the Revolution devours its children in execution and suicide driven by hatreds and rivalries carried out in the name of lawless law. The play has resonance for today's embittered and challenging political culture."
