Overview

LE MALADE IMAGINAIRE Directed by: Francis Perrin Assistant director: Clarisse PerrinSet design: Jean-Michel AdamCostumes: Jean-Daniel VuillermozLighting: Jacques Rouveyrollis assisted by Jessica Duclos Music: Michel Winogradoff With over 10,000 performances to his credit, Francis Perrin is celebrating 60 years on stage by acting in and directing an author who has accompanied him throughout his life: Molière!

Catch him in "Le Malade Imaginaire" alongside his family and friends from 2 September 2026. Le Malade imaginaire tells the daily life of Argan, a wealthy bourgeois convinced he is gravely ill.

Obsessed with treatments and doctors, he decides to marry his daughter Angélique to Thomas Diafoirus, a ridiculous young doctor, in order to have a resident practitioner at home. Yet Angélique loves Cléante, whom she believes to be a music master.

Revolving around them is a gallery of comical characters: Béline, the self-interested second wife, Béralde, the sensible brother, and above all Toinette, the sharp and clear-sighted maid.

To open Argan's eyes, Toinette disguises herself as a doctor and pushes medical absurdity to the extreme. Gradually, the truth comes to light, self-serving plans fail and love triumphs.

With Francis Perrin, Nathalie Cerda, Eric Laugérias, Eric Boucher, Jeanne Perrin, Louis Perrin, Marguerite Dabrin, Côme Thomas and Jean-Luc FabryStage photos - credit: Lou Tarabon (Link) Important cloakroom information: Doors open 30 minutes before the showThe theatre cloakroom is at your disposal free of charge as soon as the doors open.
