The Misanthrope 🍿 Screening at The Rufus Centre

Award-winner Sandra Oh (Killing Eve) plays the title role in this razor-sharp reimagining of Molière’s classic dark comedy.

🎭Telling the truth isn’t always that simple. Alice, a brilliant novelist, despises the carefully constructed lies of modern society. But the more she challenges those around her, the fiercer the backlash becomes. Soon, she must confront the price of speaking her truth in a world that would rather silence her.

📆 Screening:

September 23rd at 2pm & 7.30pm
October 8th & 29th at 2pm
October 9th & 28th at 7.30pm
