ABOUT THE SHOW
Hypocrisy has never been this hilarious!
"TARTUFFE" by Molière (born Jean-Baptiste Poquelin) and directed by Bryn Boice
Poor gullible Orgon refuses to see what's hiding in plain sight!
He's been duped by "TARTUFFE," a charismatic con man, who fully intends to make off with his family, his fortune and maybe even his kitchen sink!
Thank goodness the women of the household are not so easily fooled.
Together they vow to reveal his ruse and beat "TARTUFFE" at his own game.
But will their daring deception be enough to defeat the sanctimonious scoundrel before the final curtain?
Pulitzer Prize-winner Richard Wilbur's most noted works are his translations of Molière’s four most outstanding verse plays, "The Misanthrope," "TARTUFFE," "The School for Wives" and "The Learned Ladies."
His translations of Molière’s works have been performed globally, including productions on Broadway and the National Theatre in London.
Packed with witty wordplay, laughable lies, and the pretense of piety, this side-splitting satire will keep audiences on their toes and on the edge of their seats.
