The Imaginary Invalid:

Resonance Ensemble presents two plays in repertory, Charles Mee's The Mail Order Bride and Moliere's The Imaginary Invalid. The following is from the press materials: "The Imaginary Invalid is Molière's satirical look at the medical profession. As Argan (the "invalid")'s financial circumstances collapse under the weight of excessive medical bills, made by his own fears and by the unscrupulous behavior of his two physicians, he decides to marry his daughter off to one of his doctors in return for a lifetime of free medical treatments. The idea meets opposition, though, when it becomes clear that the young lady's affections lie elsewhere. Soon the entire household is involved in an elaborate, uproarious plot to save true love." This production features an all-female cast.

The Mail Order Bride:

Resonance Ensemble presents two plays in repertory, Charles Mee's The Mail Order Bride and Moliere's The Imaginary Invalid. The Mail Order Bride is Charles L. Mee's tribute to the writings of Moliere. Inspired by The Imaginary Invalid (as well as other Moliere plays) this new comedy set in modern-day Brooklyn revolves around Argan, an older hypochondriac who orders up a young Asian bride, much to the outrage of his family and friends. But when a handsome young caterer arrives on the scene, the bride must choose between loyalty and love, and Argan is forced to learn the difference between growing old and growing up.
