Synopsis

Wild plots and quicksilver wit characterize the plays of Georges Feydeau.

Called the greatest master of French comedy since Molière by admirers such as Kenneth Tynan, Feydeau reflects the lusty tradition of the French bedroom farce as well as the tough exorbitant humor later to find full expression in the theater of the absurd.
