<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In this new book, the first of its kind in English, Simon Trowbridge traces the rich and sometimes turbulent history of France's national theatre company, the Comédie-Française, from its foundation in 1680 to the present day. The Comédie-Française has survived the vanity of kings and emperors. It has survived revolutions and wars. During all of its long history it has remained a true company, a society of actors. There have been good times and inevitable dips, but today this most legendary of theatres is also among Europe's most dynamic and most compelling.</p><p><br></p><p>High quality production photographs, along with other images, illustrate the text and help to convey the style and quality of the Comédie's recent work.</p><p><br></p><p>Also available in hardback.</p>
