Short biography

Among other plays, he made his actor debut in Zara ou la Sœur de l'Arabe (1837) or Geneviève de Brabant (1838) at the Théâtre des Folies-Dramatiques, before his own plays were presented on the most important Parisian stages of his time, including the Théâtre de la Gaîté, the Théâtre de la Porte-Saint-Martin, and the Théâtre du Vaudeville.

Letorzec was managing director of the Théâtre des Délassements-Comiques from 1843 until his death.
