Molière in the Park is back with an opening night event that will dazzle and delight!
Support Free Theater in Prospect Park and enjoy a night of spectacular entertainment and joyful partying at our opening night of The Miser, re-imagined for today's world.
With this production, MIP will once again reinvent Molière for today's world while also keeping with our desire to stay true to the original French. We will both lean into non-traditional casting choices, including casting women in male roles and swapping genders, to highlight persistent biases, deconstruct existing power dynamics, and look into the barrel of existential paranoia and greed. Additionally, with the permission of David Chambers, certain passages will be revised employing direct translation from the original French.
The Benefit and Opening Night Party will be Friday May 3, at 6 pm - 11pm
Performance will begin at 7:30 pm
Tax deductible EARLY BIRD Tickets and GENERAL tickets will include:
A pre-show cocktail as the sun sets on the lake in Prospect Park, with bubbly and light hors-d'oeuvres.
The Opening night performance
A post-show party with the cast and crew (food and drinks will be served)
Tax Deductible BRONZE, SILVER, GOLD and PLATINUM Tickets will include:
All of the above AND
a raffle ticket to win a week long stay in a gorgeous and newly renovated 6 bedroom chalet, in the French Alps valued at $3250*
Tickets to the benefit party can be found here. The Miser will run from April 27th - May 19th.
