Tartuffe!

 The picture above is from a recent production of Tartuffe at SMU in Dallas.  Yes, yes, yes, it's a modern-dress production, but this picture above gives you a good idea of what this satirical play will be about: a conman passes himself off as a spiritual advisor in order to bilk a wealthy man and his wife.

As I look around, I see a number of (more or less) modern-day productions, but I'd like to show you some pictures of more historically accurate versions.  Tartuffe was written and first performed in 1664, so I want to emphasize the historical aspects of this play.  It is timeless, but I want you to realize that this play is a 17th century satire and was performed at the French court (which probably explains the ending!).

Here the maid Dorine confronts Tartuffe in a production at the East Carolina Playhouse in Greenville.

 

In the picture below, Orgon hides under the table and hears Tartuffe propositioning his wife.  The production pictured is from Hampton-Sydney College in Virginia:

 

These actors from the University of South Carolina played this scene even more farcically:

 

I guess this must be the most celebrated scene in the play as when I looked for other interpretations of this play I saw this print from 1892:

 

This woodcut (of the same scene) appears to be from the 17th or 18th century.
