Description:

Searching for talent for the "Tartuffe" show. Find the details listed below. About the project: Wealthy bourgeois M. Orgon has taken into his household Tartuffe, an apparent religious zealot who has come on hard times. Actually an opportunist and swindler, Tartuffe has gained substantial status in the eyes of Orgon and his mother, Mme Pernell. Orgon has become so enamored, he is tricked into handing over his property, and is willing to give Tartuffe his daughter’s hand in marriage, breaking her current engagement. Orgon’s son, Damis, his brother-in-law, Cléante, and his daughter’s maid, Dorine, all try unsuccessfully to get him to see the truth. Ultimately it is his wife, Elmire, who comes up with the plan to bring Orgon to his senses and restore order. Additional info: Performance Dates: September 8 - September 30, 2023.
