The Ballet Dancer's Husband is a play written by Ernest Feydeau in 1880. The play revolves around the character of Monsieur Pontagnac, a married man who becomes enamored with a beautiful ballet dancer named Lucienne. Despite being married himself, Pontagnac pursues Lucienne relentlessly, even going so far as to attend her performances and shower her with gifts. However, his advances are not reciprocated, and Lucienne remains faithful to her own husband, a successful businessman named Fernand de Bois d'Enghien. As the play progresses, Pontagnac's obsession with Lucienne becomes increasingly desperate, leading to a series of comedic misunderstandings and mishaps. Ultimately, the play explores themes of infidelity, jealousy, and the consequences of pursuing forbidden desires.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
