    From 1966 to 1973, as an actor at the Théâtre de la Clairière under the direction of Miguel Demuynck, he participated in the emergence of theater for young spectators in France. He led numerous drama and theater workshops within the CEMEA (Centres d'Entraînement aux Méthodes d'Éducation Active). From 1973 to 1978, he directed the animation team of the Paul Eluard Theater in Choisy-le-Roi, and founded and directed the Théâtre du Bonhomme rouge, a theater company for young audiences.

From 1988 to 1999, he was director of ANRAT (National Association of Theatre and Education). He is the author and co-director of several films about theater.
