The full casting has been announced for Tartuffe, which will play at the National Theatre in 2019. Written by Molière in the seventeenth century, Tartuffe has been adapted by John Donnelly, refreshed for a contemporary audience in the modern day. A tale of power and hypocrisy, Tartuffe centres around Orgon, a man who lives a comfortable life in his home with his family. Surrounded by money, he later invites a stranger named Tartuffe into his household, who deceives Orgon with his seducing ways.
