"He's a beast I tell you - a real animal"
What happens when you've lived only for pleasure, and you finally run out of time When you've broken every promise, outraged every decency and slept your way through half of Europe - where do you turn as the clock starts to tick towards midnight
Neil Bartlett's new translation brings out all the dark undercurrents of Molire's wickedly black comedy.
Even if this is a decidedly dark reading, Bartlett also does justice to the play's comedy... Elegant * Guardian *
This blackly comic Don Juan offers stylish and chilling entertainment. * Telegraph *
Molire is one of the greatest writers of comedy of all time. Works include Les Fourberies de Scapin, Tartuffe, The Misanthrope, The Miser, and The Hypochondriac.
