Oh, The Hypocrisy! Or, A Dramaturgical Analysis of Moliere's Tartuffe

dc:description.abstract

<p>In approaching Tartuffe from a dramaturgical standpoint, one must consider the relevancy of the production and how the production team is able to translate the message of an antiquated play to a modem audience.
