| dbo:abstract | Jeanne Perrette Le Chevalier (1688–1774) was a French stage actress, notably active in Sweden. She was married to the actor and theater manager Charles Langlois. Jeanne Perrette Le Chevalier and her spouse and son Alexandre came to Sweden as members of the French theatre and opera company Académie royale de musique, which was engaged by Jean-Baptiste Landé to perform at the royal court and at the Bollhuset in Stockholm in 1723–1727. She was a leading member of the theatre and her specialty was queen- and character roles. In 1726, she was noted for her performance as Premiére Bergére in a libretto created by her husband and performed in honour of the birthday of Queen Ulrika Eleonora of Sweden. The Langlois family chose to remain in Sweden when the French theatre was dissolved. In 1729, she was engaged as an agent to recruit a new French theatre company to perform in Sweden, and she accompanied Carl Gustaf Tessin and Ulla Tessin to France. However, in the end, nothing came of the project. In 1730, her husband acquired a permit from the guilds to trade in smaller luxury articles to support the family. He applied for it because she was a married woman and therefore legally a minor, but in practice, his wife used the permit and supported the family with the luxury trade for several years, becoming a successful businesswoman. She occasionally continued to perform on stage when French-language plays were performed in Bollhuset theatre, such as in La Médée et Jason in 1740 and La scene de reconnaissance in 1748. In 1752, it is noted the Langlois couple gave French lessons; her husband was the instructor of the pages of the royal court, while she hosted a Pension school for daughters of the nobility. (en) Jeanne Perrette Langlois, född 1688, död 1774, var en fransk skådespelerska verksam i Sverige. Före äktenskapet var hennes artistnamn Jeanne Perrette Le Chevalier. Hon var gift med kollegan Charles Langlois, med vilken hon 1718 fått sonen Alexandre. Jeanne Perrette Langlois var troligen medlem i ett franskt teatersällskap som turnerade i provinserna. Hon ankom till Sverige med sin make och son 1723, som en av de första medlemmarna i det franska teatersällskap, Académie royale de musique (Stockholm), som hade engagerats av Jean-Baptiste Landé, och som uppträdde på teatern i Stora Bollhuset i Stockholm 1723-1727. Hennes specialitet anges som drottning- och "karaktärsroller". Åren 1726 och 1727 uppträdde hon som Premiére Bergére vid makens libretton inför drottning Ulrika Eleonora. Familjen stannade kvar i Sverige även sedan det franska teatersällskapet hade upplösts. 1729 gjorde hon en resa till Frankrike tillsammans med Carl Gustaf Tessin och Ulla Tessin med uppdraget att undersöka engagemanget av en ny fransk teatertrupp till Sverige. Ingenting är känt om hur uppdraget utlöpte, men ingen fransk teater trupp blev vid detta tillfälle engagerat. Från 1730 var hon sysselsatt som lyximportör: handeln med "galanterier" var officiellt registrerad på maken, men utfördes i realiteten av henne. Hon var en framgångsrik handlare och ska ha försörjt familjen under dessa år. Hon uppträdde fortsatt tidvis i fransktalande pjäser, när sådana gavs på Bollhusteatern. Paret Langlois spelade huvudrollerna i La Médée och Jason 1740 och i pjäsen La scene de reconniassance 1748. År 1752 nämns att hon höll en så kallad franskpension, det vill säga en internatskola i franska språket, för adliga flickor i sitt hem. (sv) |
