# Psyche

An audiobook by Molière, read by LibriVox volunteers (2 h 1 min, English).

This is a very different Moliere, not the usual satire of everyday life. It is instead a classical tale based on the ancient story of Psyche and Cupid, and was performed for Louis XIV with ballet interludes to music by Jean-Baptiste Lully (which we do not include here) in 1671. - Summary by ToddHW Cast list: Jupiter: alanmapstone Venus: Eva Davis Love; Cupid in Prologue: Tomas Peter Zephyr: alanmapstone Aegiale, a Grace: Crln Yldz Ksr Phaëne, a Grace: Sandra Schmit The King: alanmapstone Psyche: Leanne Yau Aglaura: TJ Burns Cidippe: Sonia Cleomenes, a prince, Psyche's lover: MajorToast Agenor, a prince, Psyche's lover: Rob Marland Lycas, captain of the guards: Zames Curran River God: alanmapstone Cupid: Eva Davis Flora: Foon Nymph, chorus of divinities: Availle Palemon, god of streams: alanmapstone Vertumnus, god of trees and fruit: Nemo Vulcan: Nemo First Man: Nemo Second Man: Stefan Von Blon Woman: April6090 Stage Directions and Editing: ToddHW
