Le roman d'un jeune homme pauvre (Play)
Produced by Daniel Fromont
"Le roman d'un jeune homme pauvre" by Octave Feuillet is a play written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around Maxime Odiot, the Marquis de Champcey, who finds himself in a state of destitution after the death of his mother and the ruin of his father. The play explores themes of nobility, wealth, and romantic entanglements amid the struggles of a young man dealing with unexpected poverty and societal expectations. At the start of the play, we are introduced to Maxime as he reflects on his current dire circumstances in a Parisian garret, empty of funds and hope. His interactions with the concierge, Madame Vauberger, and his friend Gaston reveal his sense of pride and the remnants of his noble upbringing. The unfolding scenes depict his shock at the extent of his family's misfortunes, his determination to support his younger sister, and his conversations with various friends and family that hint at the complexity of his relationships amidst the backdrop of his financial woes. Maxime's character is further developed through dialogues that illustrate his introspection and the societal pressures he faces, laying a solid foundation for the conflicts and themes that will unfold throughout the play.
