La Cagnotte is a classic French comedy by Eugène Labiche, one of the most prolific and popular playwrights of the 19th century. Written in collaboration with Alfred Charlemagne Lartigue, this play showcases Labiche’s talent for creating farcical situations and humorous characters. The play revolves around a group of provincial friends who decide to pool their money (’la cagnotte’) for a trip to Paris. Their journey is filled with mishaps, misunderstandings, and uproarious adventures, highlighting the foibles and eccentricities of the French bourgeoisie. Labiche’s sharp wit and keen observation of social customs make ’La Cagnotte’ a delightful and enduring example of French comedic theater. This edition allows modern readers to rediscover the charm and humor of Labiche’s work, offering insight into the social dynamics and comedic sensibilities of 19th-century France.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
