Theatre Columbus State presents a classic by Molière

Continuing with this season's comic theme, Communication Skills Professor Dr. D. Michael Ehret will direct Molière's 17th century comedy of manners The Misanthrope, March 4 - 7.

The play concerns a righteous critic of polite French society, Alceste, who falls in love with Célimène, a flirtatious socialite who represents everything that he scorns. Love triangles, bumbling servants, a court trial over a love poem, and a tangle of love triangles complicate the plot, with hilarious results.

Five productions of The Misanthrope  are scheduled for Nestor Hall Auditorium on:
     Wednesday, March 4, at 8:00 p.m.
     Thursday, March 5, at 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.
     Friday, March 6, at 8:00 p.m.
     Saturday, March 7, at 8:00 p.m.

All performances are free, and open to the public.
