Boise State University Department of Theatre Arts Presents Moliére’s 'The School for Wives'

The Boise State University Department of Theatre Arts will present Moliére’s comedic masterpiece “The School for Wives” at 7:30 p.m. April 16-18, 22-25 and 2 p.m. April 20, 26 at the Danny Peterson Theatre in the Morrison Center.

In “The School for Wives,” Arnolphe, an aging bachelor, has a brilliant plan. Determined to avoid an unfaithful wife, he’ll marry a girl too innocent and too ignorant to fool him. But in his house of bumbling servants, Arnolphe’s plan is bound to backfire.

“The School for Wives” was first performed in France in 1662. Boise State’s production is guest directed by Tracy Sunderland. It is suggested for children 13 and older due to innuendo.

Tickets are available through Select-a-Seat and idahotickets.com and are $15 general and $12 for non-Boise State students, Boise State alumni and seniors. All tickets are $9 each when purchased in groups of 10 or more. For more information, call 426-3957.
