L'avare

Today, all the Grade 11 French IB students went to downtown, Toronto at the George Ignatieff Theatre affiliated with the University of Toronto to watch the play L'Avare written by Moliere. This play was written centuries ago which explains the bizarre costumes worn by the professional actors. The theatre gave a dramatic experience and the stage had beautiful sets. This two and a half-hour play was filled with comedy throughout with the greedy father and his children who have fallen in love. The daughter fell in love with the lackey and the son is in love with the young bride-to-be for the father. Who knew that there were family ties between the lackey and the young bride and the hilarious chef. A mishap occurs at the end where families join together and the money box is retrieved. I enjoyed the play very much, but I have to study for the test tomorrow.
