Ardèle ou la Marguerite
Ardèle () is a 1948 play by French dramatist Jean Anouilh. According to Anouilh's biographer Edward Owen Marsh, "In this angry, pessimistic work Anouilh shows himself a master at the height of his powers in every aspect of his craft... Ardèle is a terribly bitter play, but it holds the imagination as a piece of poetic theatre."
