Molière malgré Elles | Moliere, Her way

Elles sont amoureuses, rusées, insolentes, soumises… ou du moins, c'est ce que les hommes voudraient croire !
Molière Malgré Elles revisite quatre grandes comédies (L'École des femmes, Malade imaginaire, Tartuffe et Le Médecin malgré lui) sous un regard résolument contemporain.
Entre rires, révoltes et jeux de pouvoir, ces héroïnes vieilles de quatre siècles nous rappellent que certaines batailles sont loin d'être gagnées…
Molière leur avait donné la parole. Cette fois, elles prennent le pouvoir!

They are lovestruck, cunning, defiant, submissive… or at least, that’s what the men would like to believe!
Molière, Her Way reimagines four of Molière’s greatest comedies (The School for Wives, The Imaginary Invalid,  Tartuffe and The Doctor in Spite of Himself) through a distinctly contemporary lens.
Between laughter, rebellion and power struggles, these heroines from four centuries ago remind us that some battles are far from over…
Molière gave them a voice. This time they're taking over!
