Event Details

Don Juan is one of French literary legend Molière's most controversial and electrifying plays. It tells the story of a notorious seducer who relentlessly pursues romantic conquests, dismissing moral and social norms in the name of absolute freedom. In this bold exploration of desire, defiance, morality, and power, Molière paints a complex portrait of a character whose reckless pursuit of pleasure feels startlingly contemporary. Molière in the Park's reimagining of this provocative play, translated by Stephen Wadsworth, will feature a live contemporary cello score by returning guest artist Johnathan Moore.

ABOUT OUR PARTNER

MOLIERE IN THE PARK

Molière in the Park is like Shakespeare in the Park’s cool French cousin who lives in Brooklyn. They present a contemporary production of a Moliere play every year and additional readings and events throughout the year. Always free. Always world class theater. Molière in the Park believes that Molière’s plays, when produced through an inclusive and contemporary lens, explore the human condition in a way that promotes generosity of spirit, fosters unity over division, and spreads joy. Something we all need nowadays.
