Un Tigre du Bengale

Un Tigre du Bengale ("A tiger from Bengal") is a one act "comédie vaudeville" (or "comédie mêlée de chants") by Édouard Brisebarre (1815-1871)[1] and Marc-Michel (1812-1868)[2].

According to Bernt Lindfors (2011: pp. 311-312), this play should not be confused with The Bengal Tiger by Charles Dance (Leipzig: Julius Wunder, 1838), a one-act farce about a rich stingy uncle from India.
