La Bete at OpenStage Theatre & Co

A London and New York prize-winning comedy by David Hirson inspired by Molière.

When a pig-headed patron in 17th century France imposes a vulgar street performer on the court’s most prestigious comedy company, there are fireworks of indignation. This exhilarating play pitches the crass comic against the intellectually swift and socially significant Molière-like satirist who runs the company.
