Better Late and Don't Walk Around with Nothing On archive

Two one-act plays form a cycle of four completed in 1911 by arguably the greatest French comic playwright since Moliere. Feydeau's focus shifts here from sexual peccadilloes, adultery and frantic amatory pile-ups to a pessimistic portrait of married life. Disillusioned with his own marriage at the time, Feydeau sharply and mercilessly recreates the miseries of conjugal existence. Under the surface hilarity, he thrusts upon us outrageous characters who are neither able to communicate nor willing to compromise. All that's left is a desire methodically and cruelly to tear each other apart. Better Late and Don't Walk About with Nothing On remain timelessly convincing portraits of marriages made in hell.
