"The Flying Doctor" by Molière is a funny play from a long time ago that's all about being sneaky and in love. A young guy named Valère really wants to marry Lucile, but her dad, Gorgibus, wants her to marry someone else who is rich but not very nice. So, Valère comes up with a plan to trick Gorgibus by dressing up his goofy servant, Sganarelle, like a doctor. Sganarelle pretends to know a lot about medicine, even though he doesn't, and it leads to some really funny situations. In the end, Valère and Lucile get to be together, and Gorgibus learns to accept their love, making it a happy and funny ending.
