Tartuffe

Last night I went to the last production of Tartuffe preformed on campus. The gates opened at 6 so my friends and I decided to head over at 6:45 because the play would not start until the sun went down. We sat on a blanket on the grass for about an hour talking about random things and playing a few games before the play finally stated at around 7:45. It was a very interesting play about a man who is basically decisiving a man to get the deed to his house and land. The man being decived had almost made his own daughter marry this awful man, Tartuffe, but he had no idea of the man’s true intentions. Tartuffe was actually in love with the wife and just wanted to get the man’s land. It was actually a very funny play and it was funny to see the faces of the other actors on stage when the would react to certain lines. I think the students did a very good job putting on the play and really made all the characters come to life. Last year I heard they put on the production “Of Mice And Men” and I would have really liked to see it. My freshman year of high school I had to read the book... and I did not exactly read the whole thing but then we watched the movie in class. It was a great movie and it would have been really cool  watching it in a live production. I cannot wait to see what production they will put on next year.

Thanks for reading my blog! Have you seen Tartuffe?
