In the aftermath of the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle, as peace reigns, Louis XIV decides to host a grand festival in his cherished gardens at Versailles, with Molières lively comedy, George Dandin, as the highlight. The story unfolds as a wife returns home late to find the door locked and threatens to end her life if her husband doesn’t let her in. In a clever twist, she feigns a suicide attempt, causing her husband to rush out in a panic, only for her to sneak inside and lock him out. With the added chaos of her clueless parents—aptly named Sotenville, meaning Idiot in Town—this tale promises the usual madcap hilarity that Molière is celebrated for. - Summary by Translator and ToddHW
