Five by Feydeau: Tranlsated by Paul J. Marcoux

Georges Feydeau

Georges Feydeau (1862-1921) is considered second only to Moliere as a great writer of French comedy and yet his reputation, at least in English-speaking countries, rests largely on a half dozen plays. This book features new translations of five of his lesser known works as seen from the perspective of a stage director: Brothers In Crime (Gibier de potence), The Dressmaker (Tailleur pour dames), All My Husbands (Le mariage de Barillon), That’s My Girl! (Occupe-toi d'Amelie), and Nothing But The Tooth (Hortense a dit: Je m'en fous). The Introduction provides biographical information, traces the most significant influences in Feydeau’s output, and discusses farce as a dramatic genre.
