"Moaning without Disease"
"Moaning without Disease" is the last work of the French drama master Molière This work is also one of his most brilliant satirical comedies. Suffering from overwork and illness, he frequently dealt with doctors at the end of his life, so he used his pen as a knife to analyze himself. The protagonist Argan has the shadow of the writer himself, and his individual misfortunes and absurdities make people laugh, while the discussion of medicine itself brings sober reflection and the shadow of illness and death to this farce. When the play was first performed in Paris in February 1673, Molière himself performed the role of Argon, but collapsed on the stage due to overwork and died soon after.
Although modern medicine has long been a rigorous and trustworthy science after more than 300 years, there are still many people who "moan for no reason", and quackery doctors who "take credit for good medicine but not cure" can still prevail. Seizing the practical significance of the play, the Comédie Française once again staged this version of "La Moan" on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of the great playwright's birth. It was directed by Claude Stratz and has been performing for the first time since 2001. It has been performed for more than 500 performances since then, showing a polished and exquisite dexterity.
