Crafton-Preyer Theatre
This unique adaptation combines two works of Molière into one spectacle of 17th-century comedy. The Rehearsal follows a troupe of actors frantically rehearsing for their command performance before King Louis XIV. Upon the King's arrival, the company presents The Hypochondriac, a farcical love story about adding a doctor to the family tree.
