MICHEL SAINT-DENIS ARCHIVE. Vol. XLVIII. Papers relating to Saint-Denis's work with Copeau and 'Les Copiaux', the experimental theatre group which had grown out of the old Vieux-Colombier company, and which was based in a village in rural Burgundy. This volume also includes material relating to 'La Compagnie des Quinze', or 'Les Quinze' the company Saint-Denis founded and ran from when Les Copiaux was disbanded in 1929. After their initial failure in Paris in 1931, they were invited by the British Drama League to perform at the Arts Theatre Club and were so successful with critics and public alike that their run was extended and they returned for four more seasons at the New Theatre before the company was dissolved in 1934. For a short period in its closing stages, Les Quinze were based in a farmhouse called Beaumanoir near Aix-en-Provence, and there are a number of legal documents relating to this property included in this section.
