Jessica is a beautiful young woman from the provinces who has come to Paris and lands a job waiting tables at a chic bistro on fabled Avenue Montaigne. Jessica's customers include a popular TV actress who is courting a major Hollywood director for her first serious film role; a wealthy art collector who is about to liquidate a lifetime's worth of treasures at auction; and an illustrious classical pianist who is at odds with his manager/wife as to where his career is headed.

Cette pièce reçut un accueil enthousiaste lors des premières représentations, en février 1665.

Le film réalisé par Marcel Bluwal en 1965 pour la télévision visait à proposer par l'oeil d'un cinéaste une vision totalement neuve.
