Jeanne Perrette Le Chevalier

Jeanne Perrette Le Chevalier (1688–1774) was a French stage actress, notably active in Sweden.

Jeanne Perrette Le Chevalier and her husband and son Alexandre came to Sweden as members of the French theatre and opera company Académie royale de musique, which was engaged by Jean-Baptiste Landé to perform at the royal court and at the Bollhuset in Stockholm in 1723–1727.

In 1730, her husband acquired a permit from the guilds to trade in smaller luxury articles to support the family.

He applied for it because she was a married woman and therefore legally a minor, but in practice, his wife used the permit and supported the family with the luxury trade for several years, becoming a successful businesswoman.

In 1752, it is noted the Langlois couple gave French lessons; her husband was the instructor of the pages of the royal court, while she hosted a Pension school for daughters of the nobility.
