L'Étourdi ou les contre-temps by Molière

"L'Étourdi ou les contre-temps" by Molière is a five-act comedy first performed in 1655. When young aristocrat Lelio falls for Celia, a woman enslaved by a miserly old man, his clever servant Mascarille devises scheme after elaborate scheme to help him. But there's one problem: Lelio himself keeps accidentally sabotaging every plan. Through disguises, fake deaths, and stolen purses, this farcical tale of romantic pursuit shows what happens when good intentions clash with spectacular incompetence.
