8vo and 12mo. Together 7 pp. Three shorter letters in the collection are of a practical nature, asking for or granting theatre tickets. In a letter from 4 May 1858 to the "Association des artistes dramatiques", Cisserant announces his resignation from the committee of the association because of an accident and lack of time. - On 14 July 1862, Cisserant informed a friend that the Od on cannot hire a Mademoiselle Blainville even though he was impressed by her: "J'ai vue et entendue Mlle Blainville. Je lui trouve des qualit s ; elle a du naturel, elle est jolie femme, enfin, j'ai d'elle une bonne opinion!. mais. il n'y a pas de place!". - Finally, Cisserant wrote a charming letter to the famous comic actor and close friend Jean-Marie Joseph Geoffroy, known as Geoffroy. The letter is remarkable, as Geoffroy famously avoided socializing with his colleagues and was decried a misanthrope. However, Cisserant addressed Geoffroy as "Mon Bon Jojo" and writes with great humour about his leg injury that prevented him from meeting Geoffroy. The letter can be dated with respect to the death of Geoffroy's wife Louisa Kersent in 1864, as Cisserant sends greetings her. - Hippolyte Cisserant was a comic actor at the Th tre du Gymnase and at the Od on. - The letter from 14 July 1862 on stationery with lithographed letterhead of the Od on theatre. A letter from 14 September 1854 with embossed monogram. The letter to the "Association des artistes dramatiques" with recipient's note and traces of a collection label. Well preserved.
