Impromptu de Versailles
Professor Row’s LF 453 course, “The French Enlightenment: Theaters of Deception” will be performing Molière’s Impromptu de Versailles on May 2, from 4:45-6 PM in PHO 206. It’s a delightful one-act play about metatheatricality, entirely acted and directed by the students in the class!
Molière and his troupe of actors are scrambling to finish a newly commissioned play before the arrival of the king Louis XIV! Will they finish in time, or will they have to resort to pure improvisation when the doors open? Come see their final project! (en français)
