Bell Shakespeare The School For Wives

Perth Theatre Trust, State Theatre Centre and Bell Shakespeare present The School for Wives by Molière Directed by Lee Lewis Translated by Justin Fleming Five Performances only! Wednesday 11 to Saturday 14 July, 2012 State Theatre Centre 174-176 William St, Perth Falling in love is never easy. Take our hero for instance. Now here’s a guy who wants desperately to get married but is afraid that a smart woman will cheat on him. His ingenious solution? Enlist the help of a local convent to raise a girl so stupidly innocent that she won’t know the first thing about cheating - let alone the last. In his mind she will be ever-faithful. The perfect wife. Or is she? When it comes to theatrical comedy, Molière was the master of French classical farce and "The School For Wives" is one of his most hilarious works. Following on from her success with "Twelfth Night", Lee Lewis directs this fresh new translation from Justin Fleming of Molière's comedic train-wreck of a love story that tangles innocence with arrogance – and the other way around.
