Answer

Yes, Anouilh's plays often feature tragic heroines. This is because he believed that tragedy was the most effective way to explore the human condition. He saw tragedy as a way to show the audience the dark side of human nature, and to challenge their assumptions about what is right and wrong. Anouilh's tragic heroines are often women who are trapped in a world that is not fair to them.
