National Theatre Live: The Misanthrope at Launceston Town Hall
National Theatre Live brings a fresh staging of Molière's The Misanthrope to the big screen at Launceston Town Hall. The play follows Alceste, a man driven to fury by the flattery and dishonesty he sees all around him — a premise that has lost none of its bite in the centuries since it was written. It's a relaxed way to catch a top-flight London production without leaving Cornwall, in the convivial setting of a town hall that doubles as a welcoming local venue. A good night out for anyone who enjoys sharp writing and theatrical spectacle.
