The Hypochondriac

Brink Productions’
The Hypochondriac
By Molière
A new adaptation by Paul Galloway
Directed by Chris Drummond

Before Blackadder and the Holy Grail there was… The Hypochondriac

What the hell is wrong with you? Sure, it might be just a dizzy spell, but maybe it's Mad Cow Disease! And yes, that tingle on your top lip could be just a cold-sore, but what if it's a dose of good old-fashioned leprosy? Don't book a trip to the emergency ward, book a ticket to Brink's catastrophically funny The Hypochondriac, based on Molière's comedic masterpiece Le Malade imaginaire. You'll come out feeling better than when you went in.

Pants-wettingly funny, mind-boggling insightful, The Hypochondriac is as hilarious and relevant to today's audiences as it was when sixteenth century doctors were shoving strange things into even stranger places.  So skip your next check up, postpone your triple bypass, pop in a catheter and catch Brink Productions' The Hypochondriac. (But seriously, see your doctor if pain persists.)
