Pour se venger d'un Sganarelle buveur, roublard et fainéant, son épouse, Martine, le fait passer pour un grand médecin, mais si fantasque qu'il faut le bastonner pour qu'il accepte d'exercer son art. Affublé malgré lui de ces nouvelles compétences, Sganarelle comprend rapidement l'intérêt qu'il peut tirer de cette situation et se prend au jeu. À grands coups de latin et de ruse, notre médecin de pacotille réussira-t-il à tromper son monde jusqu'au bout ?

George Dandin est un riche paysan. En échange de sa fortune, cédée à M. et Mme de Sottenville, il acquiert un titre de noblesse, un rang et une femme, Angélique. Mais il ne peut rien contre cette épouse qui se refuse à lui et ne peut empêcher Clitandre, gentilhomme libertin mais peureux de la courtiser ouvertement. C'est une sombre farce qui retrace le drame de cet homme jaloux à raison, cocu avéré mais impuissant devant le mensonge. C'est tragique, en fait, comme histoire. Mais on rit quand même.

Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, mostly known by his stage name Molière, wrote The Doctor in Spite of Himself in the 17th century. It's the story of Sganarelle, who is mistaken for a reputable doctor, even though, as an alcoholic woodcutter, he has no idea what a doctor should know. In turn, he helps a girl who has "lost" her voice as well as her lover.

This timeless comedy of manners is considered one of Molière's most probing and mature works. While it's still an exemplar of 17th century farce, Molière went beyond his usual comic inventiveness to create a world of rich, complex characters, especially in the cynical title character Alceste, played here by the Tony Award-winning actor Brian Bedford.

In 17th-century Sicily, a clever valet named Mascarille tries to help his boss, Lélie, win the girl of his dreams – only to find that Lélie is a monumental dunce who ruins every one of his intricate schemes. Undaunted, Mascarille invents progressively wilder plots, only to see his best-laid plans go very awry in Molière’s The Bungler, translated by Richard Wilbur.

Molière wrote some of the most durable and penetrating comedies of all time. The Imaginary Cuckold and The School for Husbands are two of his grand farces of marriage and misunderstanding, one set in Paris and the other in the provinces. In The School for Husbands, a tyrannical husband-to-be seeks to isolate his ward, while unwittingly carrying her messages of devotion to her lover. In The Imaginary Cuckold, an enraged husband imagines his wife is unfaithful, but is reluctant to defend his honor.

In this biting comedy of errors, the hapless Arnolphe is undone by his own double dealing and double standards. The School for Wives was first performed at the Palais Royal theatre on December 26, 1662, and is considered by many to be Moliere's masterpiece. Richard Wilbur's subtle verse translation illuminates the great master of comedy at his wittiest.

This is a very different Moliere, not the usual satire of everyday life. It is instead a classical tale based on the ancient story of Psyche and Cupid, and was performed for Louis XIV with ballet interludes to music by Jean-Baptiste Lully (which we do not include here) in 1671. - Summary by ToddHW Cast list: Jupiter: alanmapstone Venus: Eva Davis Love; Cupid in Prologue: Tomas Peter Zephyr: alanmapstone Aegiale, a Grace: Crln Yldz Ksr Phaëne, a Grace: Sandra Schmit The King: alanmapstone Psyche: Leanne Yau Aglaura: TJ Burns Cidippe: Sonia Cleomenes, a prince, Psyche's lover: MajorToast Agenor...

"Tout le monde me prend pour un homme de bien ; mais la vérité pure est que je ne vaux rien." Tartuffe. Quel poison s'est insinué dans le foyer d'Orgon ? En laissant Tartuffe entrer dans sa maison, Orgon ne pouvait pas imaginer qu'il allait mettre en péril sa fortune, son honneur et l'unité de sa famille. Dans cette pièce hautement provocatrice, Molière démontre toute l'étendue de son talent pour fustiger, sous couvert du rire, les impostures d'un discours religieux drapé dans les oripeaux de la dévotion.

Moliere, on the way to the Ballet of the Muses, a court festival, started to write a new Heroic Pastoral. "He chose for his subject a similar one to the history of Florizel and Perdita in Shakespeare's Winter's Tale…. The charm of his writing, the exquisite delicacy of the sentiment, and the freshness of the pastoral scenes, cause us to regret that Moliere wrote only the first two acts of this play and never finished it." Though it was performed this way in Dec 1666 - so maybe there is enough here to enjoy. The Pastoral Comedy which follows it was performed as part of the Ballet of the Muses...
