The Hypochondriac

A Young & Wild Production
7 – 18 May 2008

Drama Centre Black Box, Singapore

Meet Argan – a wealthy and mostly healthy man who is convinced that he’s plagued by all sorts of obscure and embarrassing diseases. He plans to marry his daughter Angelique to a doctor’s son, guaranteeing himself a lifetime of free medical care!

Alas, Angelique loves the hunky Cleante, and it’s up to the feisty maid Toinette to stop the marriage and knock some sense into Argan.

young & W!LD brings you, for the first time in Singapore, a witty and wacky new production of one of the world’s favourite classic comedies Molière’s Le Malade Imaginaire (The Imaginary Invalid). Drawing from the playful Commedia dell’Arte style, THE HYPOCHONDRIAC promises you a fast-paced, laugh-a-minute treat, full of movement, music and medical misbehaving!
