One of the most popular French actresses of her time, she had a string of brilliant successes in vaudeville and light comedy at the Palais-Royal, the Variétés, and the Gaîté, specializing in soubrette and "breeches" parts, which came to be known as "Dejazets." Later, after managing the Théâtre Folies with her son, the theater was renamed the Théâtre Dejazet. (4770)
