The Imaginary Invalid
Presented by University Theatre, this comedy is a fun look at the health care debate.
Cough! Wheeze! Gasp! Agran, a miserly hypochondriac, wants his daughter, Angelique, to marry a doctor- for the free medical care. This new translation of Moliere's farcical comedy pokes fun at the medical profession, family corruption, and absurdities in familial duty. Produced in the 'Steampunk' aesthetic, a fantastical spin on Victorian decadence and turn-of-the-century industrialization, this costume drama will delight through its combination of satiric commentary, physical farce, and stunning visuals.
Performances at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 22, 23, 24, 29, 30, 31, Nov. 5, 6, 7 and 2 p.m. Nov. 1.
