Pierre FRESNAY. Autograph manuscript signed "P.F.",- Hommage - Lot 171
Pierre FRESNAY. Autograph manuscript signed "P.F.",- Hommage à Ludmila Pitoeff, September 24, 1951; 2pages in-4. Tribute to Ludmilla Pitoëff (died September 15, 1951), delivered on September 24, 1951 at a tribute to the actress at the Théâtre des Mathurins. It evokes "the revalorization of the dramatic art" brought about by Copeau, Dullin, Jouvet and Baty, oriented "more especially towards the problems of spectacle than those of interpretation. You, Ludmila and Georges Pitoeff, in a voluntary poverty (of which more than one author, led by Jean Anouilh, have always been nostalgic) in an almost naked theater, you have, through a constant, passionate and exhausting effort lived heart to heart with the dramatic poets, tuned your thoughts and emotions to theirs and rediscovered, in this stripping down, the essential principle of all staging - the actor face to face with the author in direct contact with him"...
