Adapted from Molière's The Misanthrope, David Ives's The School for Lies tells the comic tale of Frank, who shares with Molière's Alceste a venomous hatred of the hypocrisy that surrounds him. Like his predecessor, Frank gets into trouble for insulting the work of a dreadful poet and falls in love with Celimene, a witty widow. In Ives's madcap version, however, Celimene returns Frank's affection because she wrongly believes him to be King Louis XIV's bastard brother.
