Summary "Le Voyage de Monsieur Perrichon: Comédie en quatre actes" by Eugène Labiche and Édouard Martin is a comedic play written during the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around Monsieur Perrichon, a self-satisfied middle-class carrossier, who embarks on a family trip to Switzerland with his wife and daughter, Henriette. The play humorously explores themes of social status, pride, and the absurdity of human behavior, while showcasing the interactions between Perrichon and various other characters, including his rivals for Henriette's affections. At the start of the play, we are introduced to the bustling atmosphere of a Parisian train station as Monsieur Perrichon, impatient and overanxious, prepares for the family's departure to the Alps. Alongside him are his wife, Madame Perrichon, who feels overwhelmed by his hurriedness, and their daughter, Henriette. As they navigate the chaotic station, the opening scenes introduce several other characters, including Majorin, who is enviously waiting for Perrichon. The tone is set for the comedy with Perrichon's pompous personality and significant focus on the mundane details of travel, hinting at humorous misunderstandings and social commentary that will unfold throughout their journey.
