The Imaginary Invalid at University of Wisconsin Madison - Mitchell Theatre
It makes perfect sense that a writer would comment on the healthcare debate, but it’s a little odd that Moliere was doing it way back in 1673. The Imaginary Invalid is surprisingly prescient, telling the story of a cheapskate hypochondriac named Argan who pressures his daughter to marry a doctor so he can get free medical care. The play’s comedic elements and social satire get cranked up when Argan’s daughter predictably refuses her husband-to-be. In order to help an almost 400-year-old play better translate to modern audiences, University Theatre’s production will employ a steampunk aesthetic, mashing up the styles of Victorian England with more contemporary technologies and industry.
