comment
Martin Guerre is a musical by Claude-Michel Schonberg and Alan Boublil, who are likely better known for their work on Miss Saigon and the musical version of Les Misérables. Like those works, this one emphasizes operatic style and features little spoken dialogue.The story is based loosely on the French peasant of the same name who was famous for being impersonated over the course of several years by Arnaud de Thil. It is famous for being closed down during its original run for a 50% rewrite of the show, completing a pretty successful run, then being rewritten almost completely for a UK revival (resulting in two separate offical recordings that could almost been considered two different musicals) then being rewritten AGAIN for a US tour...and Boulbil & Schonberg are STILL tinkering with it.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })

Artistic Licence – History: In Real Life Arnaud du Tihl was executed by hanging, whereas in the play he is murdered by an angry mob after escaping from jail.

Becoming the Mask: Arnaud initially is reluctant to accept his role as 'Martin Guerre' but after a while he grows to love the village, his life and of course, his wife Bertrande. By the end of the play he seems to really think of himself as 'Martin Guerre.'

Angry Mob Song: There was a 'knife dance' in the first version, cut in the rewrites. Also, the part the villagers sing in 'Justice Will Be Done'

Cloudcuckoo Lander: Benoit. He seems to be mentally ill (he believes a scarecrow to be his fiance) but has occasional moments of extreme lucidity that seem to cast him more as a cuckoolander using Obfuscating Insanity.

Dark Reprise: "Live With Someone You Love" gets one when Arnaud dies. Also, "I'm Martin Guerre" gets one when Arnaud sings it in the courtroom when he pretends to be Martin. Not exactly dark, but still a bit on the creepy side.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })
