Biography

I graduated in Classics at the Sorbonne and was admitted to the École Normale Supérieure where I studied Philosophy. I completed a Masters degree in Comparative Literature at the Sorbonne and a European Masters degree in Philosophy which led me to Toulouse, Louvain-la-Neuve, Munich and Tokyo. I also trained as an actress, a classical singer and a lighting designer. For my PhD I will focus on opera lighting. The different ways lighting has been used – or not used – in scenic productions reveals much about the kind of being-together we want to create amongst the audience and by extension the kind of society we are hoping to build. My ultimate goal is to stage productions that would help audiences to develop a creative life within a democratic society.
