The Imaginary Invalid is a three-act com�die-ballet by the French playwright Moli�re with dance sequences and musical interludes by Marc-Antoine Charpentier. It premiered on 10 February 1673 at the Th��tre du Palais-Royal in Paris and was originally choreographed by Pierre Beauchamp.
Moli�re had fallen out with the powerful court composer Jean-Baptiste Lully, with whom he had pioneered the com�die-ballet form a decade earlier, and had opted for the collaboration with Charpentier. Le malade imaginaire would turn out to be Moli�re's last work. He collapsed during his fourth performance as Argan on 17 February and died soon after.
