Winchell must woo his wife back so he won’t have to pay her out in divorce court, and cure his recently engaged daughter Emily of the matrimonial urge, so he won’t have to pay for a wedding – ever! Set in modern day Winnipeg, Gray’s version of Molière’s classic satire is part sex farce and part screwball comedy.
Nicholas Rice as Winchell – The Miser
Marina Stephenson Kerr as Mia – The wife
Shannon Guile as Emily – The daughter
Andrew Cecon as Martin – The love interest
Ryan James Miller as Richard – The butler
Set Design by Grant Guy
