Description It's Auckland 2011 and a nouveau riche family is about to be undone by the arrival of Tartuffe. He's no visitor from Hawke's Bay, he's a life coach with the airbrushed charisma of a telly evangelist, a diabolically witted con-man whose appetite for seduction is as firm as his grasp on religious hypocrisy. He only needs a couple of suckers who will fall for his holier-than-thou routine and, in a batty society matron and her idiot son, he's found them. History tells us that false leaders have always been able to inspire a cult-like following and twist good words to evil ends. Welcome to Apocalypse Paritai Drive.
