If You Please
"If You Please" ("S'il Vous Plaît") is a Dada–Surrealist play co-written by the French surrealist writer and theorist André Breton and poet and novelist Philippe Soupault.

"If You Please" was written several years before the publication of the "Surrealist Manifesto" when Breton was primarily associated with Dada. The original performance was on March 27, 1920 at the Salle Berlioz in Paris and was part of a larger Dada program that "included Tzara's Zurich success "La Premiere Adventure céleste de M. Antipyrine" ["The First Celestial Adventure of Mr. Antipyrine"], "Le Serin muet" ["The Silent Serin"] by Ribemont-Dessaignes, "Le ventriloque désaccordé" ["The Untuned Ventriloquist"] by Paul Dermée, and Picabia's "Manifeste cannibale dans l'obscurité" ["The Cannibal Manifesto in the Dark"]."
