Coles Bitter Comedy: The Life of Molière at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Molière, the world-famous classic dramatist, lived, played and wrote three hundred years ago. Son of the court tapestry-maker to Louis XIV of France, Jean-Baptiste Poquelin became an actor, and then, taking the stage-name Molière, himself brought to the stage all the weakness and gaucheness that the tumultuous age set before him every day as France developed a middle class. He depicted the social climber in Les Fâcheux, turned his murderous humour on the hypocrite in Tartuffe, disparaged the money-worshipping bourgeois in L’Avare… And the list might go on and on of his creations, plays which for three hundred years have given audiences so much pleasure and entertainment – and still do today. Bitter Comedy, Miklós Rónaszegi’s vie romancée, presents a lucid account of the life and times of the universally-acclaimed dramatist and of the genesis of his works.
