Women
based on three comedies by Molières,
The School for Women, Tartuffe, L'Amour Médecin (excerpts)
Adaptation and direction: Ismini Vlavianou
With 19 students from Terminale Theater specialization, supported by 2 students from Terminale Option Théâtre
Presentation
How to play Molière in 2021, with the troop of students from Terminale Spécialité? How to choose between the three works on the program, L'École des femmes (1662) and Le Tartuffe ou l'Imposteur (1669), two comedies that raised criticism and controversy, and L'Amour Médecin (1665), comedy-ballet and premiere staged at Versailles by the Roy's troupe?
We decided to propose a dramatic montage, composed of 19 scenes and 2 intermissions, which takes as its point of attachment the female characters. From the candid Agnès to the astute Dorine, women in Molière always manage to thwart the designs of patriarchal domination. ‟Women”…, then!
