Cranky M Argan imagines he has every ailment there is. He plans to marry his daughter to a dull young doctor so he will always have a physician handy. But Angelique swears she will enter a convent first, for she is in love with the young, handsome Cleante, and so we're off into the Molière world of humorous extravaganzas!
The Imaginary Invalid was well received by the actors, students, audience -- especially young children. The timeless aspect of physical comedy appeals to everyone. Every character in this play provided the actors wonderful, rich opportunities for development.
