Actor & Director
"Worth the ticket price for Furlong alone." Don Juan - Fairypowdered
A versatile stage, screen and street performer, I have acted extensively over a 20 years career in France and London, in plays, films, street theatre and devised pieces. I trained as an actor in Paris National Theatre of Chaillot.
As a director I established my company, Exchange Theatre, in 2006, and have been its artistic director and producer since then. In freelance, I was assistant director at the Royal Opera House, and YOUNG VIC Jerwood director in 2020.
