Going to see “The School for Wives,” the season opener at the Two River Theater Company in Red Bank tonight. Can’t wait. Why? Having seen traditional productions of the show half a dozen times already, this version offers something new — it’s set in the late 1950s AND the translation is by the brilliant Richard Wilbur. Mark Wing-Davey, multi-nominated best director by Drama Desk members, helms the show.
“The School for Wives” is a comedy written by French playwright Molière and considered by many to be his best work. It first was staged at the Palais Royal theater on Dec. 26, 1662. But, of course, you knew that.
