'The Miser' concludes Clague Playhouse's 82nd Season
The comedy, “The Miser,” by Molière, translated by Albert Bermel and directed by Douglas A. Farren runs through Sunday, May 23, at Clague Playhouse in Westlake. Show times are Thursday through Saturday at 8:30 p.m. (note later curtain time) and Sunday at 2 p.m. (Sunday, May 23, is sold out.)
About the play: One of the funniest plays in dramatic literature, this modern version abounds with laughter. The son and daughter of the miser fall in love and are about to declare their intentions when the miser announces his own wedding plans: he, to the girl with whom his son is in love, and his wealthy friend, to his daughter. After a few rollicking laps around the block in which the miser’s hidden treasure figures, it is revealed that the rich friend is the long lost father of the boy who loves the miser’s daughter and of the girl who is loved by the miser’s son.
