Louis JOUVET. L.A.S., Sunday, May 10 (1929?), to Mme J. Lieure; 3pages oblong in-12 headed Comédie des Champs-Élysées Théâtre Louis Jouvet, envelope.
Jouvet has a lot to tell his friend. He is very busy with the new play and "tired of endless conversations with the Rothschilds. Things have been broken off and rekindled twice... I don't think I'll be going to Pigalle as a director for the time being. Perhaps I'll go as a director"... [Henri de Rothschild, who built the Pigalle theater, offered Jouvet the position of director after Antoine and Gaston Baty resigned. Jouvet refused, but did direct a few plays, including Donogoo-Tonka by Jules Romains, and La Pâtissière du village by Alfred Savoir].
Enclosed is an issue of La Revue française (December 7, 1930), with an article by R. Brasillach on the Théâtre Pigalle.
