TEHRAN – Director Maryam Kazemi will stage French playwright Jean Baptiste Poquelin Moliere’s “The Miser” at the Tehran Theater Complex in late June.

The 1668 play is a comedy about a stingy man, Harpagon. Although he is over sixty and has two young children, he is arranging a marriage between himself and an attractive young woman, Marianne, who is in love with his son, Cleante.

Hossein Mohebahari, Jamshid Jahanzadeh and Afshin Zarei are the main members of the cast for the play, which will be on stage for two months.
