The Department of Theatre presents a production of “Tartuffe” by Molière. The religious fraud Tartuffe has hoodwinked rich merchant Orgon and is poised to marry his host’s teenaged daughter, to seduce his lovely wife, and to ruin his gullible patron — unless someone stops him.  Sacrebleu!  Moliere’s wicked satire, banned after its first performance in 1664, has been provoking worldwide laughter ever since.
