URI Theatre production of Cinderella

2011-2012 Season

Tartuffe

by Moliere

J Studio
February 23 - March 4, 2012

Clutching ever-present rosary beads, shifting uncomfortably within the hairshirt he wears for continual penance, and always eyeing the women as they pass - Tartuffe insinuates himself into a wealthy Parisian household and turns it into wickedly funny pandemonium.  This is Moliere's Tartuffe, who's central character is a wily, opportunist and swindler, affects sanctity and gains complete trust of the head of a wealthy family while everyone else sees how Tartuffe really is:  crooked.  Tartuffe is Moliere's comic masterpiece that has been enjoyed by millions for centuries.
