When the seemingly perfect Tartuffe ingratiates himself with the wealthy Orgon and his mother Madame Pernelle, he is soon welcomed into their home and into their lives.

His combination of charm, respectability and religious authority proves so irresistible that he is eventually promised the hand of Orgon's daughter in marriage.

But the rest of Orgon's family have grave doubts - is there more to Tartuffe than meets the eye?

When the threat of eviction for the family and imprisonment for Orgon become apparent, is it all too late to find out?This hilarious and irreverent whirlwind of lies, religious hypocrisy and family feuds features one of theatre's most perfect comedy creations, the beguiling Tartuffe.
