Classic satire, one of the best by France’s greatest comedic playwright, pokes fun at the sham and hypocrisy of 17th-century French society. A wealthy tradesman, Monsieur Jourdain, yearns to become a gentleman in order to win the hand of a marchioness—disregarding the inconvenient fact that he is already married—but only succeeds in making a fool of himself.

The Middle-Class Aristocrat, Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, The Bourgeois Gentleman, The Middle-Class Aristocrat or The Would-Be Noble is a five-act com�die-ballet-a play intermingled with music, dance and singing-written by Moli�re, first presented on 14 October 1670 before the court of Louis XIV at the Ch�teau of Chambord by Moli�re's troupe of actors. Subsequent public performances were given at the theatre of the Palais-Royal beginning on 23 November 1670. The music was composed by Jean-Baptiste Lully, the choreography was by Pierre Beauchamp, the sets were by Carlo Vigarani and the costumes were done by the chevalier d'Arvieux.Le Bourgeois gentilhomme satirizes attempts at social climbing and the bourgeois personality, poking fun both at the vulgar, pretentious middle-class and the vain, snobbish aristocracy. The title is meant as an oxymoron: in Moli�re's France, a "gentleman" was by definition nobly born, and thus there could be no such thing as a bourgeois gentleman. The play is in prose (except for the ballet openings which are in verse).

The Middle-Class Gentleman written by Molière in 1670, is a delightful comedy that satirizes social climbing and the pretensions of the middle class. The play revolves around Monsieur Jourdain, a wealthy tradesman who dreams of becoming an aristocrat and immersing himself in the trappings of high society. Through hilarious encounters with various characters, including a philosopher, a music master, and a master of arms, Jourdain's naivety and gullibility are laid bare. The play cleverly explores themes of social ambition, class distinction, and the notion that true nobility cannot be bought or imitated. Molière's witty dialogue and comedic timing add to the play's charm, providing audiences with uproarious laughter while offering a sharp critique of societal conventions. This story remains a timeless work, resonating with audiences across generations. Molière's astute observations of human folly and his masterful blend of satire and humor make this play a true comedic gem, continuing to entertain and enlighten readers about the foibles of social pretensions.

Monsieur Jourdain is a middle class merchant who foolishly believes he can break into the upper echelon of society. Desperate to elevate himself and his station, it seems there is no humiliation too great as he tries to better himself via tutelage from a variety of instructors who are more than happy to relieve him of his money. He also finds himself an easy mark for a penniless nobleman who uses him to fund an extravagant lifestyle. Monsieur Jourdain's long-suffering wife and daughter find themselves caught up in one of his latest schemes, involving a poorly planned affair, several sets of unhappy lovers and a full orchestra and ballet company invading the household. It will fall to the clever servants to find sense in the madness and set things right.
