Description "The Flies," which was first produced in France by Charles Dullin during the Occupation, is a splendid example of the philosophic melodrama with which Sartre is giving maturity to the techincally clever, but spiritually empty, non-materialistic movement in the French drama, which had its source in the plays of Guillaume Apollinaire, found a spiritual home in the Theatre du Vieux Colombier, founded by Jacques Copeau in 1913, and reached its peak in the brilliant, but hollow, plays of Jean Cocteau.
