Playwright and actor, author of numerous scenarios for film and television, Yves Jamiaque was born on 30 January 1918 in Paris. After his death in 1987, his play "Mr. Amilcare" gained a lot of popularity and was played for the first time on September 25, 1974, in "Théâtre des Bouffes-Parisiens". Under the title "Monsieur Amilcare" the play hasn’t come down from the scenes for 20 years in Europe and above all in Russia, where it enjoys numerous productions and big success. In the undefined by the author genre, comedy or drama, the lonely Mr. Amilcare decides to buy feelings and family happiness by hiring a professional actress for a wife, a street prostitute for a daughter, and a poor Parisian painter for a friend. The condition is one – no real feelings whatsoever. Simply theater within a theater.
