Biography
[edit]Adélaïde-Thérèse Feuchère was born into a family of actors; her mother and sister were also actresses, engaged at the theater in Lyon. She made her debut at the age of fifteen at the Comédie-Française in Paris during the 1783–1784 season; she performed in comedies such as Les Dehors trompeurs by Louis de Boissy, Zénéide by Louis de Cahusac, and La jeune Indienne by Sébastien-Roch Nicolas de Chamfort. According to Le Censeur dramatique and Le Journal de Paris, her performance was well received.[1] In 1784, she joined the troupe of the Comédie française de Sa Majesté le roi de Suède in Stockholm, where she performed until 1787.[2]
She returned to France in 1787 and was engaged at the theater in Lyon.[3]
In 1790, she met the writer, critic, and gastronome Alexandre Balthazar Laurent Grimod de La Reynière; he dedicated Consolation à Mademoiselle Feuchère to her. They married on an indeterminate date: the marriage is dated to September 4, 1790, according to Gustave Desnoiresterres, who based this on Grimod's correspondence,[1] or June 6, 1812, according to Ned Rival, who consulted notarial records.[4]
