Roger VITRAC (1899-1952). L.A.S., Plourhan (Côtes du Nord) August 26, 1946, to Agnès Capri; 1page in-4 on yellow paper.
He receives "a proposal from a young company 'Le Thyrse' to stage - perhaps at your place - Victor ou les Enfants au Pouvoir. It's funny, because Anouilh urged me to suggest you do a revival with music by Sauguet. You obviously have the audience for it. What do you think? And what should I think of Michel de Ré's proposal, which I like because of Alfred Jarry and the unfortunate Sylvain? [Victor ou les enfants au pouvoir premiered on November 28, 1928 at the Théâtre Alfred Jarry, directed by Antonin Artaud; the play was revived in 1946 by Michel de Ré with Agnès Capri. Vitrac is alluding to the actor and director Sylvain Itkine, who died in deportation in 1945, and who had created his Coup de Trafalgar in 1934].
