Book excerpt: Moliere's cast has all come down with food poisoning! Worse… They've been to see doctors and, as such, are now confined to bed! This leaves Moliere to entertain the audience all by himself (praying that no one asks for a refund…)! And so, he proceeds to lead them through his favorite monologues and scenes: "Tartuffe," "The Misanthrope," "Don Juan," "The Bourgeois Gentleman," "The School for Wives," "The Precious Young Maidens," "The Doctor in Spite of Himself," "The Imaginary Cuckold," "The Schemings of Scapin," and "The Imaginary Invalid." He plays scenes to unexpecting audience members, pulls volunteers from the audience, and climbs over the audience' laps, while working his way through the funniest theatrical catalogue in history! Timothy Mooney, living a "parallel existence with France's greatest playwright, has not only rewritten most of Moliere's plays into fresh rhymed iambic pentameter, but, playing Moliere, in "Moliere Than Thou," has introduced over a hundred thousand people to the man who is, perhaps, the funniest playwright of all time!
