To date "Fridolin" has reaped $250,000 from English and French versions of "Ti-Coq," both of which he wrote himself. The play, which opened in Quebec in May, 1948, has been presented 215 times to 200,000 people. Last spring "Ti- Coq" opened in English and before the final curtain was down five producers from Broadway were making extravagant offers. Three mem- producers from Broadway were making extravagant offers. Two mem- bers of cast, seen here, are: Huguette Oligny, and Fred Barry.
