In 1673, Molière and Charpentier collaborated to produce “Le Malade Imaginaire”, with interludes where shepherds, moors, comedians and crazy doctors sang and danced and clowned their way through a succession of fantastical scenes.
We will be looking at the First Interlude: Polichinelle comes to serenade his beloved – with disastrous results! We‘ll be concentrating on mask work, commedia, and ensemble dance work.
Actors and Singers are welcome as well as Dancers!
