Tartuffe

Tartuffe

Zany, bright, loud, fun....thought provoking? The CSI Theater Department brings the irreverent comedy of Moliere into the 20th century with their outrageous production of Tartuffe.  The inveterate con artist, Tartuffe, finds his mark in Orgon, an affluent and politically connected man of unquestioned faith. With his faux piety and self-serving displays of virtuosity, Tartuffe charms his way into Orgon’s household and schemes to defraud the family of all they possess in Molière’s comedic satire on hypocrisy. Moliere’s play, banned after its first performance in 1664, has been provoking world-wide laughter ever since.  The production of this bawdy comedy will bring together elements of popular culture, slapstick comedy, and classical literature. Moliere is a master at eliciting belly-laughs while making the profoundest of social statements. You will laugh, you will have a great time, and you will think.
