Molière’s comedy The Misanthrope, first performed in 1666 with the playwright himself in the title role – as with most of his plays – is a sparkling satire on social hypocrisy that has lost none of its relevance today. The multiple-award-winning director Jette Steckel stages the play with a contemporary perspective, undertaking a journey through Molière’s cosmos with her ensemble. The new production premieres at the Landestheater on 15 August, followed by six further performances through 28 August. A coproduction of the Salzburg Festival with the Thalia Theater in Hamburg.
