Candide

Join us for Voltaire's masterpiece, a classic, playful romp, with the young, naive Candide, who believes that "all is for the best," even when dealing with a hilarious tide of misfortune, injustice, suffering, and despair. Filled with wit, intelligence, and dark humor, this will cause the reader to ponder their assumptions about human behavior and their place in the world, as it attacks corruption, hypocrisy, religion, government, philosophy, science, and romance. "Candide" is ranked as one of the world's greatest satires, as timeless today, as it was in 1759.
