First Year end of term play 2019.
Tartuffe,
By Moliere
He’ll take Satan by the scruff and kick him out of the door
Wealthy business man, Orgon, invites the holy and pious Tartuffe into his home.
Orgon’s family aren’t so sure that Tartuffe is all he seems.
When Orgon offers the hand of his daughter, Marianne, in marriage to Tartuffe, the family unite to expose Tartuffe as an imposter.
Stock comic characters; a distraught lover, an impulsive son, a wily maid and a beautiful wife, use all their wits to bring Orgon to his senses but the stakes grow high as he remains stubbornly in thrall to his guest.
Updating the action to the 1950’s, with an underscore of rock and roll, an energetic ensemble promise a lively evening of unexpected plot twists and high jinks.
Moliere’s comic expose of hypocrisy has entertained audiences for 400 years.
Make a date and bring a friend to enjoy this timeless comic classic.
