Les Femmes Savantes

Armande and Henriette are diametrically opposed. While Henriette yearns for a simple life and marital bliss, her sister Armande claims to reject love, preferring to dedicate herself to intellectual pursuits and science.

However, when Armande learns that Henriette is about to marry Clitandre, her former suitor, her jealousy intensifies.

Aided by her mother and aunt, she will do everything to prevent this union with a single goal: to marry Henriette to Trissotin, a fake scholar with big ambitions who leads our three learned women by the nose… Under the pretext of discussing women's education, Molière delivers a fierce satire of the pedants of the era with their ostentatious intellectual pretensions.

Manipulated by Trissotin with grammar lessons and sonnets, Philaminte, Bélise, and Armande, the learned women, want to revolutionise everything. Will Henriette, Chrysale, and Clitandre, armed with their common sense, manage to stop them?
