Gardian Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I hated Tartuffe when I did it at A level. Just the same as Johney Root (Jean Racine).No point to this, just brings back memories, most of them bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanH Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 Racine is very unapproachable, but that McGough translation of the Molière is a laugh if only for the outrageous rhymes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loiseau Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I saw that version a few years ago at Richmond Theatre. It was excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
