Summary
This tuneful Off Broadway hit is based on Moliere's School for Wives. It revolves around the classic tale of the old goat who raises a young girl to be a perfect wife - for him. His plans are foiled on the brink of marriage by a handsome young man, the son of an old fiend. A hilarious stream of devious servants, false names and falser friends, and mad cap confusion culminate in the heroine discovering the plans of the conniving men in her life.
