Original French subtitles.

In the great tradition of comedy-ballets, Valérie Lesort and Christian Hecq stage Molière's famous bourgeois with music and dance. They devote their imagination to the excesses of Monsieur Jourdain, who dreams of nobility without taking into account the ridiculous.

Monsieur Jourdain is a rich bourgeois whose obsession is to belong to the nobility. To achieve this, he tries to acquire the manners of the quality people by multiplying the private lessons (music, dance, fencing, philosophy). He refuses to give his daughter in marriage to the young man she loves because he is not a gentleman. But he changes his mind when the latter disguises himself as a "great Turk" and offers to raise him to the dignity of "Mamamouchi" in exchange for the hand of his daughter...
