Edouard-Louis-Alexandre Brisebarre (Paris 12 February 1815[1] – 17 December 1871 10th arrondissement of Paris[2]) was a 19th-century French playwright.
After he studied at the Lycée Charlemagne, Brisebarre worked as a clerk by a lawyer and obtained the post of tax collector, but was laid off almost immediately and became an actor. He didn't succeed either in that occupation and thus tried his hand at writing: He then immediately was acclaimed by the public with his enigma La fiole de Cagliostro (1835).
Brisebarre composed more than a hundred pieces, mostly in collaboration with other authors: some dramas, but mostly vaudevilles where the situation comedy and words with double meanings often go alongside outright farce.
