- Summary:
- The Imaginary Invalid (French: Le Malade imaginaire) is a three-act comedy by the French playwright Molière. It was first performed in 1673 and was the last work he wrote. Molière collapsed during his fourth performance as the hypochondriac on 17 February and died soon after. The original play included dance sequences and musical interludes that Marc-Antoine Charpentier composed. The play is about a miser, Argan, who imagines himself sick when he is not. He dutifully sticks to any instructions given to him by his doctor.
