About the Show

Translated by Richard Wilbur, a poet known for his celebrated translations of Molière’s plays, the sparkling comedy, replete with period costumes, will be directed by Shakespeare Theatre resident director Brian B. Crowe. In The School for Wives, a pompous, middle-aged bachelor attempts to mold his ward into the perfect bride, but it is he who gets the true education as best laid plans fall prey to a determined rival suitor, a pair of inept servants and true love. Molière’s celebrated comedy never fails to delight audiences.
