This volume takes stock of the success of Giraudoux’s plays on the stage: to what extent do their aesthetic choices explain their relative lack of favor in the world of professional theater? And in what ways did the success of Jouvet’s plays depend on the political-cultural context? Finally, the volume contains studies of a representative sample of productions that took place up to the present day, each with their own issues and obstacles, including televised productions.
