Publisher's Synopsis

Deburau: A Comedy is a play written by French playwright Sacha Guitry in 1921. The play is a fictionalized account of the life of Jean-Gaspard Deburau, a famous mime artist who lived in Paris during the 19th century. The play is set in the Parisian theatre scene of the 1830s and follows Deburau's rise to fame as a performer and his tumultuous personal life, including his marriage to a woman from a wealthy family and his affair with a fellow performer. The play explores themes of love, jealousy, and the pursuit of fame, and is known for its witty dialogue and clever plot twists. Deburau: A Comedy has been adapted for film and television several times and remains a popular work in French theatre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
