Biography

[edit]

Lambert-Thiboust began his career as a comedian. He won a prize for tragedy at the Paris Conservatoire in 1848 and briefly pursued acting at the Théâtre de l'Odéon. His first play, L'Hôtel Lambert, a one-act comedy, was presented at the Odeon the same year. In 1850, his three-act play L'Homme au petit manteau bleu, gained real success.
