Originally written in 1664, Molière’s classic French comedy, Tartuffe, tells the story of a fraudulent, hypocritical "holy man", who worms his way into a wealthy, aristocratic family. Tartuffe manipulates the patriarch, Orgon, into signing over his estate and household, creating chaos within his family, until the King steps in to expose and arrest the imposter.

Margaret and the Wampus Cat
By Katie Myers
Directed by River Navaille
October 15-25, 2026
Studio Theatre

Deep in the woods of Appalachia, the demonic Wampus Cat waits to drive you mad – at least, that’s how the story goes. Margaret, a restless high school dropout searching for a place to belong, takes it upon herself to hunt down the beast and become a hero. But the Wampus Cat doesn’t seem to want a fight, and instead offers a curious bargain - she'll tell three tales, and after Margaret listens to them, she can decide whether she still wants to kill the cat. What follows is a story of vulnerability, resilience, and self-discovery; a story of present-day q***r love and shape-shifting, based in East Tennessee legend.
