      Cosseted mummy’s boy Edgard realises the time has come to contract an advantageous marriage… all that stands in the way is his ongoing dalliance with the housemaid, who has no intention of finding herself jilted! A mordant satire of class, money and sexual mores, Labiche’s sparkling comedy remains utterly contemporary and utterly hilarious.       <br />
              <br />
       Performed by students of the University of Manchester.       <br />
              <br />
       Tuesday 22 and Wednesday 23 March, 8pm at Contact, Oxford Road, Manchester       <br />
       Tickets £8/£5       <br />

      Edgard, jeune bourgeois choyé par maman, accepte le mariage respectable que celle-ci lui propose... le seul obstacle étant sa liaison de longue date avec sa bonne, qui n’a malheureusement pas la moindre intention de lâcher prise !       <br />
              <br />
       S’ensuit une comédie pétillante qui satirise les mœurs d’une bourgeoisie hypocrite et ridicule, et qui reste on ne peut plus d’actualité.       <br />
              <br />
       Joué par des étudiants de l’University of Manchester       <br />

      Je suis né en 1815 à Paris. J'ai publié tout d'abord des articles dans la <span style="font-style:italic">Revue du Théâtre</span>. Ma première pièce s'intitule <span style="font-style:italic">La Cuvette d'eau</span> (1837). J'écris ensuite une multitude de pièces à partir des années 1840. Je me spécialise dans le vaudeville. J'obtiens l'un de mes plus grands succès grâce à <span style="font-style:italic">Un Chapeau de paille d'Italie </span>(1851). Dans les années 1860 je triomphe avec <span style="font-style:italic">Le Voyage de M. Perrichon </span>(1860), <span style="font-style:italic">La Poudre aux yeux </span>(1861), <span style="font-style:italic">La Station Champbaudet </span>(1862) et <span style="font-style:italic">La Cagnotte</span> (1864).   J'entre à l'Académie française en 1880.       <br />
