Spectacle : Le mariage forcé (Molière)

It's the big day! The bourgeois buffoon Sganarelle is about to marry the spirited Dorimène. Everything seems perfect until the bride-to-be reveals that she sees the marriage as a promise of a comfortable and independent life. Taken aback by the libertarian ideas of the woman he thought he could dominate, Sganarelle then does everything in his power to have the wedding called off.

In a generous and energetic performance, three actors single-handedly embody the thirteen characters in this one-act farce by Molière. With only four spotlights, four screens, and four bales of straw as their props, they revisit this classic with whimsy and irreverence in an immersive production where everything is on full display.

A jubilant (re)discovery of the work. Molière, yes—but Molière at full throttle!
