Synopsis "Tartuffe (Oberon Classics)"
When the seemingly perfect Tartuffe ingratiates himself with the wealthy Orgon and his mother Madame Pernelle, he is soon welcomed into their home and into their lives. His combination of charm, respectability and religious authority proves so irresistible that he is eventually promised the hand of Orgon’s daughter in marriage. But the rest of Orgon’s family have grave doubts – is there more to Tartuffe than meets the eye? When the threat of eviction for the family and imprisonment for Orgon become apparent, is it all too late to find out? This hilarious and irreverent whirlwind of lies, religious hypocrisy and family feuds features one of theatre’s most perfect comedy creations, the beguiling Tartuffe."An excellent new translation...Full marks all round here – I haven’t laughed so much since One Man, Two Guvnors and I’d certainly speak of Tartuffe very happily in the same breath. Fast, furious and fabulously funny." - The Good Review"It is good fun and I suspect old Moliere might have enjoyed the theatricality of the thing."- Daily Mail"The unwritten rule of translating comedy, according to Chris Campbell, is that if you lose a laugh here and there, you are allowed to add one elsewhere. His witty, up-to-date translation is the strong foundation of this gloriously funny production" - The Stage"It feels as fresh as ever... a triumph." - Birmingham Mail
