Produced by Laurent Vogel, Chuck Greif and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Nous marions Virginie" by Eugène Chavette is a comedic play written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a Parisian setting, focusing on the Ribolard family, particularly their daughter Virginie. As the title suggests, the central topic revolves around the quest to marry her off, mixing humorous encounters with eccentric characters and societal observations. The opening of the play presents various engaging characters, starting with Nicolas Borax, a down-on-his-luck street performer, who inadvertently becomes embroiled in the task of finding a suitable match for Virginie. As Borax interacts with two young men, Paul and Ernest, the story teases the forthcoming marriage proposals and the dynamics of family expectations and societal norms. Meanwhile, the play cleverly introduces the comedic absurdities of the Ribolard household, where wealth, status, and romance intersect amidst humor and misunderstandings, setting the stage for a lively exploration of love and marriage.
