About Me

started at the Questor’s Theater in Ealing, UK, when I was 10 years old. I have taken intense drama classes ever since. The last company I was part of for a 4 years was the Enfants de la Comédie in which I performed in a variety of modern and classical plays (around 5 per year), taking on a range of different roles. My experience was extended to cinema when I was selected for a secondary role in a French famous series called Julie Lescault, an eight-full-day first work experience, two years ago. My drama teacher (an alumni of the famous french \\\\\\\"classe libre\\\\\\\" of the Cours Florent) taught me the Stanislavskian method acting. Stanislavski\\\\\\\'s quest of \\\\\\\"theatrical truth”, in order to install an intimate bond between the actors and the public, breaks the theatrical “4th wall” that seperates both of them and improves their communication. This technique gives prominence to the upstream work of the actor of putting himself in the mindset of the character\\\\\\\'s situation so that they genuinely experience the feelings. This requires a rigourous exploration of the character’s background, personality and motivations. I believe this work is even more rigorously applicable to acting.
