Sganarelle

Sganarelle features four distinct farces that showcase the titular character in various comedic scenarios. In The Flying Doctor, Sganarelle attempts to thwart a man intent on forcing his daughter into an unwanted marriage. The Forced Marriage follows an older Sganarelle who is infatuated with a young woman primarily interested in his wealth.

The film also includes Sganarelle, the only play written in verse, where the protagonist becomes suspicious of his wife's fidelity. Lastly, A Dumb Show presents a narrative where a wife compels her woodcutter husband to help a mute young woman regain her voice. This production was recorded at the Duke of York's Theatre in London, reflecting the American Repertory Theatre's interpretation of Molière's work.
