Le Bourgeois gentilhomme est une comédie-ballet, en cinq actes en prose. Riche bourgeois, M. Jourdain ne rêve que d'une chose: devenir gentilhomme. Et quels ne sont pas ses efforts pour y parvenir! Cours de danse, de chant, d'armes et de philosophie: tout est bon pour acquérir les manières d'un noble. Hélas! L'élève multiple les maladresses et les balourdises. L'extravagance de M. Jourdain atteint son comble quand il refuse la main de sa fille à l'homme qu'elle aime, sous prétexte que celui-ci n'appartient pas à la haute société. Cette fois, c'en est trop. Son entourage est bien décidé à lui faire recouvrer la raison. Rien de tel que les ruses d'un habile valet pour mettre un terme aux lubies d'un vieux barbon!

The Doctor in Spite of Himself or The Physician in Spite of Himself or The mock doctor is a comedy in three acts and in prose. Great classic of French literature. Sganarelle is an alcoholic woodcutter, prankster and deceiver. He beats his wife Martine and to avenge herself, she tells the domestics of Geronte que Sganarelle is a great doctor but he will only admit so it if he’s beaten up. Ready to be hanged for his nitpicking with Geronte, Sganarelle is forgiven by a lucky coup de theater and reconciles with Martine.
