Clifton Amateur Dramatics Society present 'Tartuffe'

Join Clifton Amateur Dramatics Society (CADS) for an unforgettable immersive experience of Molière’s The Tartuffe (otherwise known as The Impostor or The Hypocrite). This play, first performed in front of the Sun King himself in 1664, tells the story of a wealthy family ripped apart by a deceitful charlatan and features some of the most memorable characters in French literature. An entertaining study on manipulation and its consequences, this story is truly timeless. The splendour of the Clifton Club, the period costumes and live music with instruments of the time, should prove to be the perfect backdrop for this thought-provoking, heartfelt and wonderfully witty satirical farce.

There will be an interval of 25 minutes where you can savour macarons & ice cream prepared by the chef at the Clifton Club, delight in the baroque music and enjoy a variety of drinks in the Drawing Room. Two delicious French cocktails can be purchased along with your tickets: the Kir Royale and the French 75*.

Black tie, while not necessary, is certainly encouraged.

Doors open at 7. Commence at 7.30. Carriages at 10.

Thursday 31 July – Saturday 2nd August

The Clifton Club, 22 The Mall, Clifton, Bristol, BS8 4DS
