L'Atelier, the French Theater Workshop at Princeton, will present a
comedy by French playwright Georges Feydeau at 8 p.m. Thursday through

diva, of his impending marriage to another woman, the daughter of a
wealthy baroness.
The cast consists of undergraduate and graduate students who are
advanced L'Atelier performers. The production marks the fifth
anniversary of L'Atelier on campus.
The performance is sponsored by the Department of French and Italian
and the Center for French Studies. Admission is free, but reservations
