Jealousy is one of our most confounding human emotions. Psychologists disagree about its origins: did jealousy evolve along with other human emotions, or is it something we've learned? The great French playwright Molière wrote often about jealousy and its disastrous effect on our relationships. Of his so-called "jealousy plays," few were as widely-performed in Molière's lifetime as The School for Husbands and The Imaginary Cuckold. The broadcast includes interviews with translator Richard Wilbur and the star of both plays, the Tony Award-winning actor Brian Bedford.
L.A. Theatre Works' radio theater series can also be heard on the following stations (check local listings for broadcast times): 89.7 WGBH, Boston; 91.5 WBEZ, Chicago; 94.9 KUOW, Seattle; 90.1 WABE, Atlanta; 94.1 KPFA, Berkeley; 91.1 KRCB, North Bay (San Francisco); and many other stations nationwide.
