Theophile Gautier
The theatre company led by Scapin is passing through Poitiers on their tour and stops off at the Aux armes de France inn. If the location of the latter is unknown, probably on the former Place d’Armes, now Place Maréchal-Leclerc, the church of Notre-Dame-la-Grande is mentioned.
One night, the young Léandre escapes from the inn to join Madame the Marquise de Bruyères, whose presence he has no idea. On the way, the gallant passes by the square of the church Notre-Dame-la-Grande. No doubt the old tower refers to the bell tower dating from the 11th century.
Captain Fracasse has been adapted to the cinema 9 times. There are also 6 television serials, a dozen plays and 2 comic books.
