Biography

Pierre Barillet (24 August 1923 – 8 January 2019) was a French playwright.

Born in Paris, France, Barillet developed a passion for theatre from a young age. After studying law, he wrote his first play, Les Héritiers, in 1945. This was followed by Les Amants de Noël, which was staged at the Théâtre de Poche. He also worked as a radio broadcaster, sharing novels and plays alongside Agnès Capri. His breakthrough came in 1951 with Le Don d'Adèle, co-written with Jean-Pierre Gredy, which was performed over a thousand times. Over the ensuing decades, Barillet became renowned for his contributions to Boulevard theatre. Some of his works were adapted for Broadway, including Fleur de cactus (known as Cactus Flower, adapted by Abe Burrows) and Quarante carats (Forty Carats).

During the 1980s, Barillet appeared in television productions such as Malesherbes, avocat du roi and Condorcet.

In the 1990s, he authored biographies, including Les Seigneurs du rire, covering Robert de Flers, Gaston Arman de Caillavet, and Francis de Croisset. His work Quatre années sans relâche explored theatrical life in France during the German occupation in World War II. His autobiography, À la ville comme à la scène, recounted his experiences writing and performing in theatre.

Barillet was honored as an officer of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres and a Knight of the Legion of Honor.

He was married to comedian Roland Oberlin.
