Le Petit-MaĂźtre corrigĂ© is a three-act romantic comedy by French playwright Marivaux. It was first performed on November 6, 1734, by the ComĂ©die-Française in Paris. In this production ClĂ©ment Hervieu-LĂ©ger makes the eighteenth century resonate with our era, all the more so given that the language is âsimpler than in other Marivaux plays, while still as refined, precise and full of humourâ. The story is that of a young Parisian whose parents have found a good match for him, a countâs daughter. But when he goes to visit her in her country home, the handsome boy â whose Parisian manners are far removed from the rules of decorum that reign in the provinces â cannot open his heart to his lovely intended. Stung, the latter decides to punish his arrogance while a former lover arrives to prevent the marriage. Between the alliance of master and manservant, and the complicity of mistress and maid, a romantic intrigue ensues full of light-hearted conspiracies and feverish emotions.

Written in 1760, Carlo Goldoniâs comedy has never been performed at the ComĂ©die-Française, perhaps overshadowed by the famousHoliday Trilogy. A satire of the Venetian merchant class, embodied by narrow-minded, complaining and intolerant men whose mistrust of the fairer sex borders on the absurd, The Boors perfectly illustrates Goldoniâs theatre, a âtheatre of life with a real content, characters observed in reality, and a natural expression.â Thus, a theatre in which the man Voltaire described as ânatureâs son and painterâ scrutinises his contemporaries, their relationships and their social behaviour. His work served to entertain while providing posterity with an acute testimony of the morals of his time. Indeed, Jean-Louis Benoit warns against reducing the author to a simple âphotographer of realityâ.
