Les Fourberies de Scapin (Scapin's Trickery)
T0177411647
The comedy was first performed in 1671 and was something of a failure but then so were
The Misanthrope and
The Miser. Comedie Francaise was formed in 1680 when Moliere's own troupe of actors merged with those of the Hotel de Bourgogne.
Scapin's Trickery is a delightful comedy of manners, where the eponymous hero, one of Moliere's resourceful valets, interferes with and manipulates the affairs of his master with the usual complicated and hilarious consequences.
