Tartuffe
by Moliere
October 23-26, 2025
Smith McFarland Theatre
The East Stroudsburg University Theatre Department proudly presents Tartuffe, Molière’s timeless satirical masterpiece, running from October 23-26,2025 at the Smith McFarland Theatre, located in the Fine Arts Building. This bold and hilarious production brings 17th-century hypocrisy to life with biting wit, unforgettable characters, and a message that still resonates today.
Directed by Jason Narvy, this fresh take on Tartuffe infuses classic French farce with contemporary energy, as it tells the story of a wealthy household turned upside down by the arrival of a fraudulent holy man. Tartuffe, a sanctimonious scoundrel, charms his way into the favor of the family patriarch, blinding the head of the house to the chaos that ensues. What follows is a whirlwind of deception, devotion, and daring schemes as Orgon’s family attempts to unmask the truth before it's too late.
