The Learned Ladies puts a satirical twist on the lives of three ladies- Philaminte, Bélise, and Armande, who are focused solely on intellectual power as opposed to matters of the senses, such as love.
The leading cast members include: Michael Pere as Clitandre; Anna Joie Valdez as Henriette; Tyler Lewis as Chrysale; Lauren Roberts as Philaminte; Kayla Walker as Belise; Lizzy Girffin as Armande; Benjamin Mills as Trissotin; Jesse Bowron as Ariste; David Hudson as Vadius; Bret Sanders as Martine; Graham Garrison as Julien; Hannah Fender as Lepine; and Dylan Blackwood as the notary.
