W25 MainStage: The School for Lies

By David Ives
Inspired by Molière
Directed by Jamie Horton

The brightest, wittiest salon in Paris is that of Celimene, a beautiful young widow so known for her satiric tongue she's being sued for it. Surrounded by shallow suitors, whom she lives off of without surrendering to, Celimene has managed to evade love since her beloved husband died—until today, when Frank appears. A traveler from England known for his own coruscating wit and acidic misanthropy, Frank turns Celimene's world upside-down, taking on her suitors, matching her barb for barb, and teaching her how to live again. (Never mind that their love affair has been engineered by a couple of well-placed lies.) Another incomparable romp from the brilliant author of All in the Timing.

Performances: Feb 14-15, 20-22 @ 7:30.  Feb 15 & 22 @ 3pm.
