Molière Turns 400

“When things look simple, don’t believe your eyes…”

Celebrate the 400th anniversary of Molière’s birth and discover the sharp social critique hidden behind his most famous comedies!

With a selection of staged excerpts from Don Juan, The Misanthrope, The School for Wives, and Tartuffe, director Lucie Tiberghien and a diverse company of actors remind us how unshakably pertinent these biting 17th-century satires remain today. The excerpts, translated by Pulitzer prize winner Richard Wilbur, are woven together by an original score performed live on piano.
