In THE MISER (in French, L’avare), Molière’s classic comedy of manners, a wealthy tightwad seeks to arrange weddings for his daughter, his son, and himself on the cheap (obviously). A brilliant blend of satire and farce with a fast-moving plot, THE MISER is as entertaining today as it was in 1668, when it was staged for the first time in the court of the French king Louis XIV.
