Eugène Marin Labiche (5 May 1815 - 23 January 1888) was a French dramatist. Some admirers have considered Labiche the equal of Molière; his plays are more complex and less coarse than many other examples of French farce. Love is practically absent from his theatre. In none of his plays did he ever venture into the depths of feminine psychology, and womankind is only represented by pretentious old maids and silly young ladies. He ridiculed marriage, but in a friendly and good-natured manner which always left a door open to repentance and timely amendment.
