Charlot

Set in the 18th century, the story follows a young man named Charlot, who is infatuated with the beautiful and wealthy Comtesse de Givri, despite her being married. As he navigates various comedic obstacles to win her affection, the play also serves as a critique of the era's high society, highlighting their preoccupation with wealth and social status. This theatrical work by Voltaire blends humor with social commentary, making it a classic example of French comedy.
