Tartuffe (Remixed)

Tartuffe (Remixed), a new version of Moliere’s classic comedy, written and directed by Darren Raymond. Relocated to an African-Caribbean household in modern England, Tartuffe (Remixed) is a deliciously biting comedy in rhyming couplets, which brings both new humour and modern pathos to the original text.

In the lead-up to Christmas, the outspoken Afolabi–Williams family gathers at Oga Afolabi’s mansion for their annual four-week reunion, a tradition always fraught with drama. This year is especially eventful as preparations unfold for Marianne’s wedding to Valere. Tensions escalate with the arrival of Tartuffe, a seemingly devout man who has quickly gained Oga’s trust and a permanent place in the household, despite others’ suspicions. As the holiday approaches, the family must confront rising conflicts over faith, manipulation, and control beneath their polished traditions.
