You've Been "Tartuffified"



Tartuffe
, Moliere's most frequently performed play, is a hilarious attack on religious hypocrisy. The main character of the play is a wealthy man named Orgon who, in his old age and fearing death, has become extremely religious and uses his religion to control his family. The title character, a swindler and a con, manages to gain Orgon's confidence and becomes Orgon's spiritual guide. Orgon, so in awe of his new mentor, offers his daughter in marriage and even turns over the family fortune. Meanwhile the rest of the household, led by a clever and comical maid, try to expose Tartuffe for what he really is.
