Based on the Play "The Imaginary Invalid"

For 350 years, Molière's comedy “The Imaginary Invalid” has remained a classic of world theater. Molière was undoubtedly a great playwright of his time because he managed to highlight the problems of the society of that time very skillfully and poetically: medicine, cynicism, social inequality, fears, and loneliness. He did it in one of the largest theaters in France - the Royal Theater of the Palais-Royal. Even nowadays, we can easily read the types and characters created by the author. However, we are not interested in talking about medicine, certainly not about the one described by Moliere in the comedy "The Imaginary Invalid", as well as the fears he and his characters felt. In the performance "Moliere. Anatomy" actors live the challenges of today in the manner of theater within theatre and with a touch of irony.
