A True Gem and Fun Outing!
By: BWW Special Offer Mar. 22, 2024
Molière’s TARTUFFE EXTENDED TO APRIL 7 “A well-directed production proves that funny never goes out of style. This “Tartuffe” feels very ‘now’ thematically. Baird has fielded a champagne cast for this production, with good work done by all.” — The San Diego Union
Tribune Molière’s TARTUFFE, acknowledged as one of the most enduring comedic masterpieces in the theatrical canon, is given an astonishingly clever translation by two-time Pulitzer Prize poet Richard Wilbur. The charlatan Tartuffe worms his way into a wealthy family causing disruption and pandemonium. This highly satiric comedy skewers religious hypocrisy, deceit, and desire. Lovers of classic theatre will not want to miss this rollicking evening of grace and fun. Directed by Richard Baird Translated into English verse by Richard Wilbur NOW-APRIL 7
