Written by a professional stage director with over fifty years’ experience directing and translating Molie?re, this text explores how the playwright strove to create a communal experience of shared laughter, and investigates four key topics relating to this achievement: Molie?re’s early experiences that lead to his later theater experiences; his central great plays of love and lust; his comedic genius and his passion for the stage; and the final words and performances of his life. 410 0$aAnthem Studies in Theatre and Performance 676 $a842/.4 700 $aGoldsby$b Robert$01047698 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461088403321 996 $aMolie?re on stage$92475465 997 $aUNINA
