Eugenie (play)
''Eugénie'' is a play in five acts by Pierre Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais. It was first performed at the Comédie-Française on January 29, 1767.
The premier of ''Eugénie'' was delayed for some time by the illness of one of its stars, Préville, who was to play the role of The Baron. There was much buzz about the play before the opening, and its premier was well-attended; but the audience's reception was lukewarm, evidently due to the play's long running-time. Beaumarchais and the cast spent the next two days revising the script, and the result was a greater success. Until the premier of ''The Barber of Seville'' several years later, ''Eugénie'' was Beaumarchais's most famous play. It was adapted in English by Elizabeth Griffith as ''The School for Rakes'' in 1769—a direct translation was difficult to make as Beaumarchais, despite setting the story in England, demonstrated a poor understanding of British culture and law.〔http://books.google.com/books?id=JA9AAAAAYAAJ&dq=%22school%20for%20rakes%22%20elizabeth%20griffiths&pg=PA4#v=onepage&q&f=false〕
