The Imaginary Invalid

SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Circle Theatre (see times)
In September, PacRep’s 24th annual Carmel Shake-speare Festival opens with The Imaginary Invalid by Molière, adapted by Constance Congdon. A source of some of the most hilariously over-the-top comedic characters in dramatic literature, Invalid…lampoons the 17th-century health care industry, beginning September 5 on the intimate Circle Theatre stage of the Golden Bough Playhouse.

Under the direction of Artistic Director Kenneth Kelleher, Molière's zany satire on the world of medicine - the questionable cures and the outrageous costs - is a swirl of romantic triangles, double entendres and mistaken identities. To quell his growing pile of medical bills, “Monsieur Argan”, played by Gary Martinez, a chronic hypochondriac, will go to any length to marry his daughter “Angelique”, played by Jennifer LeBlanc, off to a doctor. Of course, she has other ideas. Playwright Constance Congdon (author of last season‘s A Conversation with Georgia O’Keeffe) brings a full dose of her own brand of contemporary insanity, promising to leave audiences gasping, giggling and possibly…in stitches!

The Imaginary Invalid begins with two discount previews on Thursday and Friday, September 5 and 6, at 7:30pm, and opens Saturday, September 7, at 7:30pm, followed by a 2:00pm matinee on Sunday, Sept. 8. Performances continue Thursday through Saturday at 7:30pm, and Sundays at 2:00pm, through September 29. Performances are in the Golden Bough Theatre of the Golden Bough, Monte Verde St. between 8th and 9th, Carmel.
