By Molière
In a new version by Ranjit Bolt
Directed by Antoni Cimolino
This production contains adult language and uses theatrical haze and flashing lights.
FOR LOVE OR MONEY? HOW ABOUT BOTH?
The paranoid old skinflint Harper has two grown children: Eleanor, who is in love with Victor, her father’s butler, and Charlie, who loves the hard-up Marianne. Both siblings know that if they persist with their romantic choices, they can kiss their inheritances goodbye. And their plights only get worse when the widowed Harper announces startling marital plans of his own. It’ll take a miracle – or two, or three – for the desires of youth to have their way.
