About the Playwright Molière (Jean-Baptiste Poquelin) (1622-1673) remains one of France’s best known playwrights. Born in Paris, Molière’s father was a prosperous merchant, but his mother died when he was 10. After attending Jesuit school he briefly pursued a degree in law before choosing a career in theatre. At the age of 21 Molière founded the Illustre Théâtre with a group of friends. The company was never able to compete with established theatres in Paris, so eventually Molière joined an itinerant company led by the actor Charles Dufresne. The company received the patronage of the king’s brother, which led to a command performance before Louis XIV in 1658. They performed Molière’s own farce The Fleet-footed Doctor, which amused the King so much that he granted Molière the use of a Paris theater. Molière was best known for his “comédie-ballet” style. He created a skillful patterning of dialogue which is designed to enhance the typically intense physical presentation of the play. People also took notice of his choice of content — a satiric commentary on society that explores eternal human foibles and obsessions. Not surprisingly the plays had many detractors. His study of religious hypocrisy, Tartuffe, for example, was denounced by the church and proscribed by Parliament after its premiere in 1664. Revised twice, the ban was not lifted until 1669. Molière’s last play proved to be The Imaginary Invalid. During the fourth performance Molière, ironically playing the hypochondriac Argan, was seized with a genuine coughing fit and died later that night.

Director's Notes “Hypocrisy in anything whatever may deceive the cleverest and most penetrating man, but the least wide-awake of children recognizes it, and is revolted by it, however ingeniously it may be disguised.” — Leo Tolstoy This is a play about parents and their children, husbands and wives, lovers and loners, but ultimately it is about moderation versus extremism. Fanaticism of all kinds is subject to ridicule at the least and damnation at the worst. We expose ourselves to dangerous consequences when we abandon reason for obsession. Straying from the path of moderation jeopardizes hearth and home. Putting our personal and communal wealth in the hands of a zealot, a charismatic rogue, leads to destruction of the delicate balance of households, communities, and the status quo. If we believe these statements, then we should be forewarned and fortified to identify the presence of such a crafty and deceitful presence in our midst. But alas, this is not the case. History has proven that Tartuffes have fooled man and womankind throughout the ages, with false piety and subversive purposes. We see in these charlatans, these manipulators who pass for truth-tellers, a chance to obtain grace and to find answers to unanswerable questions. We want to believe. It’s a scary scenario, played over and over in our religious, political, and social arenas. Tartuffe is the quintessential embodiment of opportunism gone bad. He never really lies, he admits his crimes, and he waits for us to punish him, knowing full well that we will be taken in by his “honesty” and accept his confessions as proof of innocence. “Plays can end with the welcome intervention of kings, gods, or the cavalry, but life is not like that very often. This is, of course, Molière’s point. We could do worse than to learn from his own infectious combination of horror and delight at the endless variety of human duplicity, and from his courage in facing it without a trace of self-pity.” — David Copelin, Dramaturg, Oregon Shakespeare Festival Thank goodness Molière gives us our medicine with a smile, a chuckle, and a belly laugh. — Priscilla Lindsay, Director
