Theater, Comedy - Bordeaux - Lot 272
Theater, Comedy - Bordeaux HOURSIANGOU (Jules) A substantial collection of documents, letters, manuscripts of various plays, songs, photographs of a theater troupe, correspondence, photographs of the author, various documents and press clippings, caricatures of boxers... There are also numerous color drawings of characters and various costume sketches in gouache on tracing paper or regular paper. Most of the documents are stored in paper or cardboard folders, some with titles and watercolor drawings. Some plays feature small watercolor drawings in the margins or within the text. Jules Hoursiangou, a member and later president of *L’Avenir Théâtral*, an artistic, operatic, and dramatic society (located at 2 Cours de la Marne in Bordeaux), wrote numerous plays and “revues,” particularly for this society. He also composed songs to make a living, vaudevilles, and comedy plays. The author also possessed a modest talent as an illustrator, which allowed him to “illustrate” some of his works, and he also designed costume proposals for the plays. He is not particularly well known but was part of the Bordeaux theater scene from the 1920s to the 1950s.
