By Moliere
Directed by Greg Bostwick
IC Theatre sets Tartuffe in 1840’s New Orleans where Creole culture flavors the French of Moliere’s raucous comedy. Tartuffe, a con artist posing as a religious zealot, hoodwinks Orgon, the patriarch of a well-to-do family, into giving him all of his family’s assets, including his daughter’s hand in marriage. But Tartuffe’s considerable theatrics cannot mask the fraudulent means he uses to retain his advantage. Once his chicanery is exposed, the family unites to defeat this imposter once and for all.
