François Jules Edmond Got

François Jules Edmond Got (1 October 1822, in Lignerolles, Orne – 21 March 1901, in Passy, a district in Paris) was a French stage actor, comedian, and opera librettist.

By special permission of the emperor in 1866 he played at the Odéon in Emile Augier's Contagion.

His golden jubilee at the Théâtre Français was celebrated in 1894, and he made his final appearance the year after.

[1] Got was a fine representative of the grand style of French acting, and was much admired in England as well as in Paris.

He wrote two librettos for operas by Edmond Membrée (1820-1892), François Villon (1857) and L'Esclave (1874).
