Paul Alexis Raymond de la Croisette, called Charles (Paris, 14 April 1796 – Paris, 10 July 1849) was a 19th-century French playwright.

Biography

An archivist at the French Chamber of Deputies, his plays, often signed Charles, were presented on the most important Parisian stages of his lifetime: Théâtre de l'Odéon, Théâtre du Vaudeville, Théâtre du Gymnase-Dramatique etc.

Following a trial with the management of the Théâtre du Vaudeville related to the play La leçon de Mathématiques, [1] none of his plays was ever presented. In 1834, he was admitted yet in the Société du Caveau [fr] [2] which may suggest that he still published at that time under a pen name which has not been identified.
