"The Learned Ladies" (Les Femmes Savantes) by Molière
Translated and adapted by Freyda Thomas
A 20th century verse translation and adaptation of Molière’s 17th century satire on intellectual excess, The Learned Ladies is a rollicking, fast-moving comedy sure to delight audiences. Set in a "private salon of advanced learning," the play proves that human gullibility, pomposity and social climbing bridge centuries and gender.
Admission is $10; free with CLU I.D. Also playing Thursday, Nov. 8, through Saturday, Nov. 10, at 8 p.m. and Sunday, Nov. 11, at 2 p.m.
