About this book

"The Flying Doctor" by Molière is a French play that premiered in Paris on 18 April 1659. Based on commedia dell'arte traditions, this farce follows young Lucile, who loves Valère but is being forced to marry the elderly Villebrequin. To outsmart her father Gorgibus, Valère's clever servant Sganarelle devises an elaborate scheme involving disguise and deception, playing both himself and his twin "doctor" brother in increasingly frantic scenes that push the limits of theatrical trickery.
