Jacques AUDIBERTI (1899-1965). L.A.S., [late 1961], to Maurice Escande, Administrator of the Comédie-Française; 2pages in-4.
On La Fourmi dans le corps. He is delighted "with the entry of my Ant into your house [...] I have been thinking about the cast, and a rather enlightening idea has occurred to me that pleases Madame Thérèse Marney. The role of Turenne, with all the bitterness it implies in terms of a strong physical presence, seems to me to suit Louis Seigner perfectly. As for Jean Marchat [...] I can't imagine a better interpreter for the Writer. He would express his ironic yet lyrical way perfectly. Chapter director, among the possibilities, André Reybaz? Why not? or François Truffaut?"... [The play premiered at the Comédie-Française on March 27, 1962, directed by André Barsacq, with Thérèse Marney, Henri Rollan as Turenne, and Jean Marchat as the Writer].
Attached is a L.A.S. to Pierre Brasseur, about the adaptation of La Mégère apprivoisée (Brasseur created the role of Petrucchio) which "will soon be in bookshops. But your voice has already inscribed it in a glory to which print will add nothing" (1p. in-4).
