Exchange Theatre

Exchange Theatre returns to the Drayton Arms Theatre with Misanthropology, by Moliere, as part of their yearly Bastille Festival – a celebration of French theatre, performed in English and French.

In a time of ‘alternative facts’ and ‘fake news’, Misanthropology finds unanticipated echoes in the world today. Alceste, the most loyal man in the world, lacks only one virtue: indulgence for other’s behaviours. His search for genuineness against hypocrisy, special interests and treachery calls for a new London production in 2017. With his unique touch, Off West End Best Director nominee David Furlong returns to direct, fresh from his stint at the Royal Opera House.

June 26th to 29th
July 7th and 8th
