died Oct. 3, 1987, Lausanne, Switz.
French playwright.
After studying law, he wrote his first play,
The Ermine (1932), followed by the successful
Traveler Without Luggage (1937). He is best remembered for
Antigone (1944),
The Lark (1953), and
Becket (1959), in which he used techniques such as the play within the play, flashbacks and flash-forwards, and the exchange of roles. A skillful exponent of the
well-made play, he rejected naturalism and realism in favour of a return to
theatricalism.
