Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, better known as Molière, stands as one of the greatest masters of comedy in Western literature. His renowned play, Tartuffe, or The Hypocrite, first unveiled in 1664, showcases a compelling tale of deception and moral conflict. While initially embraced by the public and even by Louis XIV, the plays popularity faced challenges when the Archbishop of Paris issued a threatening edict against its performance and viewing. The narrative centers on Tartuffe, a duplicitous con artist posing as a pious individual, who cunningly embeds himself within Orgons household. As Orgon plans to marry his daughter Mariane to Tartuffe instead of her true love, Valère, the family begins to uncover the extent of Tartuffes sinister influence. The plot thickens as Tartuffe attempts to seduce Orgons wife, Elmire, who cleverly exposes his intentions to her husband. In a dramatic turn of events, Orgon expels Tartuffe from their home, only for the fraud to return with a legal eviction order. Ultimately, the story culminates in a surprising twist, leaving audiences with a sense of resolution and satisfaction. (Summary by Wikipedia and Laurie Anne Walden)
