The Fair of St. Germain is a comedic play written by Jean Francois Regnard in 1718. The play is set in the bustling and chaotic atmosphere of the St. Germain fair in Paris, France. The story follows the adventures of two young men, La Rapiere and La Fl�����che, who are on a mission to find love and fortune at the fair. Along the way, they encounter a variety of eccentric characters, including a fortune-teller, a pickpocket, and a group of con artists.
