DescriptionAgran, a miserly hypochondriac, wants his daughter Angelique to marry a doctor - for the free medical care. This new translation of Moliere's farcical comedy pokes fun at the medical profession, family corruption and absurdities in familial duty. Produced in the "Steampunk" aesthetic, a fantastical spin on Victorian decadence and turn-of-the-century industrialization, this costume drama will delight through its combination of satiric commentary, physical farce and stunning visuals.
