Jerome Savary Obituary
Known for joyous, entertaining productions, the prolific Savary staged everything from Shakespeare to a play about comic book hero Asterix. He also embraced musical theater, considered an Anglo-Saxon genre.
Savary's name was synonymous with theater in France after a career that included leading two Parisian theatrical institutions, the Opera Comique and the Theatre National de Chaillot.
The Compagnie Jerome Savary said Tuesday that he died Monday night after struggling with cancer.
Born in Argentina, Savary lived in New York in the 1960s, according to his company's website. His maternal grandfather, Frank Higgins, was the governor of New York in the early 20th century.

Lorsque nous perdons quelqu'un que nous aimons, surtout après une longue maladie, le sentiment qui l'emporte est souvent celui d'une terrible souffrance morale. Que la famille de Jérôme trouve du réconfort dans ces promesses bibliques: "Aucun habitant ne dira, je suis malade." ; "Tous ceux qui sont dans les tombes de souvenir entendront sa voix et sortiront" - Isaie 33:24, Révélation 21:3, 4.
Prenez courage.Ces promesses se réaliseront. Quel bonheur ce sera pour Jérôme de vous revoir tous lorsqu'il reviendra a la vie, et quelle joie pour vous de pouvoir l'accueillir dans vos bras!
En attendant ce jour des plus excitants, que Dieu panse vos coeurs chagrinés, et qu'il vous supporte en ce moment difficile.
Mes condoléances les plus profondes.
