In 1969, the former Boulbonne Abbey hosted a performance of Eugène Labiche's comedy, *La Poudre aux yeux* (Smoke and Mirrors). The play was performed within the abbey itself, with a set erected in the upstairs corridor, in front of the former Abbot's room. The family archives preserved today offer invaluable insight into the cultural life that once thrived in Boulbonne.
