Molière's comic masterpiece, translated by Richard Wilbur, is brought to life in 17th century splendor. Once banned from public performance, Tartuffe exposes the hypocrisy of those who feign virtue to disguise ulterior motives. Guest director Kirk Jackson returns to the Graduate Acting Program following his sell-out success of The Importance of Being Earnest.
