Le Tombeau de Nostradamus (English: The Tomb of Nostradamus) is a one-act farce by Alain-René Lesage. It was first performed at the Foire de Saint Laurent in 1714. Le Tombeau de Nostradamus is actually the final play in a series that includes La Foire de Guibray and Arlequin Mahomet. Between the three works, Lesage created a comedy in three acts.[1]
