I'm boggling at this item in the list of productions:
"La Jeunesse dorée, operetta by Henri Verne and Gabriel Fauré, music Marcel Lattès, with André Lefaur."
I have looked at the three biographies of Fauré that I have, and not one of them mentions such an operetta. It would, in fact, be hard to imagine something with which he would be less likely to be associated. I wonder where this information is taken from? No source seems to be cited, and I suspect something has got garbled somewhere. As the way the entry is worded seems to attribute the words to Verne and Fauré and the music to Lattès and Lefaur, I wonder if the Gabriel in question is not the composer with the aigu but the writer without one: Gabriel Faure (writer)? It doesn't really sound much in his line either, to judge from his WP article, but at least he was a writer. My suspicion is reinforced by the cover of the vocal score reproduced here: although the letters are in capitals the graphic designer has given "Comédie" its acute accent, but left Faure unaccented.
