Populated by some of Molière's most memorable characters, The Miser stands as one of the greatest comic masterpieces of all time. Full of misunderstanding, revelations, double-dealing servants, and thwarted lovers, this classic, over-the-top comedy is Moliere at his best. The Miser centers around the age-old conflict of love versus money. The miser of the title is the elderly Harpagon, a wealthy man who thinks his children cost him too much money and must be married off. He finds an old man who won’t demand a dowry for his daughter, and a rich widow for his son. Unfortunately for Harpagon, the kids have already fallen in love with penniless servants.
The miser’s obsession with money spells disaster for everyone around him until a last-minute secret unites the couples in true love.
