| dbo:abstract | François Moylin, called Francisque, was an 18th-century French actor born c.1695 and died c. 1760. He was a member of a family of actors famous throughout the eighteenth century. An actor in fairs and showman impresario, Francisque first played in the province and came to Paris to the foire Saint-Germain in 1715 and then to that of 1718. In 1720 he founded a troupe composed largely of his family, in which his brother Simon played Harlequin. At the 1721 foire Saint-Laurent, Francisque was allowed to open an opéra comique show. This privilege was not extended and the Comédie-Française forbade him to perform plays with dialogues, leaving no choice but employing puppeteers and Francisque fled Paris in 1723 and travelled through the provinces. Grenoble, Nancy, Rouen, Amiens, Avignon, Marseille, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Brussels and The Hague could admire the skill of the actor and the troupe director as talented as he was mysterious. In 1733–1734 he was Director of the Théâtre de la Monnaie in Brussels. The last mention we have of him dates from 1756 and it is not known whether he had a wife nor offspring. (en) François Moylin, dit Francisque, est un comédien français né vers 1690 et mort vers 1760. Il fait partie d'une famille de comédiens célèbres durant tout le XVIIIe siècle. Acteur forain et entrepreneur de spectacles, Francisque joue d'abord en province et vient à Paris pour la foire Saint-Germain de 1715, puis pour celle de 1718. En 1720 il monte une troupe composée en grande partie de sa famille, dans laquelle son frère Simon joue les Arlequins. À la foire Saint-Laurent de 1721, Francisque est autorisé à ouvrir un spectacle d'opéra-comique. Ce privilège n'est pas reconduit et la Comédie-Française lui interdit de jouer des pièces avec dialogues, ne laissant d'autre choix que les marionnettes et les danseurs de corde. Francisque fuit Paris en 1723 et parcourt à nouveau la province. Grenoble, Nancy, Rouen, Amiens, Avignon, Marseille, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Bruxelles et La Haye peuvent admirer l'habileté de ce comédien et directeur de troupe aussi talentueux que mystérieux : la dernière mention qu'on ait de lui date de 1756 et on ne lui connaît ni épouse ni descendance. * Portail du théâtre (fr) |
