IPANEMA THEATER TROUPE, who brought you the ovation-award winning
production of “A Flea in Her Ear”,

A World Premiere Translation and Adaptation of one of Moliere’s
funniest plays:

THE DOCTOR DESPITE HIMSELF

Directed by

GULU MONTEIRO

The Doctor Despite Himself is a one-act farcical attack on the
medical profession. Doctors were Moliere’s favorite target. In his
time, medication was more fatal to patients than their illness. Today,
with modern medicine, things are not that different. Prescriptions
drugs are one of the leading cause of death in America. If Moliere was
living in the US today, his opinion about most medical professionals
probably wouldn’t have changed much.

This new staging by director Gulu Monteiro will feature 5 actors
playing 11 roles and incorporating a theatrical style inspired by the
Buffoons.
