The Liar By Pierre Corneille - General audience Duration: 1h45
Having just completed his studies, Dorante returns to Paris, determined to enjoy the pleasures of the capital. Accompanied by his valet, he meets two young flirts at the Tuileries and invents a military career to dazzle them. A diabolical imbroglio ensues, involving young women, his father, and his friend. Disregarding honor, vows of friendship, and love, Dorante becomes entangled in a web of lies that triggers irresistible misunderstandings. Since the young women are not short of deception, one wonders who will win this game of deception. This masterpiece in alexandrines brings back to the stage the joyful and brilliant Corneille, author of The Comic Illusion.
