Le Directeur de la Comédie
Le Directeur de la Comédie is a short French play by an anonymous author.
Performed in French as afterpiece to Pigmalion (Rousseau) in the African Theatre on 29 October 1803, by the French Company, led by Charles Mathurin Villet. (The title is perhaps wrongly cited by Bosman's source as Le Directeur de Comédie.) In both pieces the lead role was taken by Mr Delémery, possibly a visiting professional actor.
