known for his innovative interpretations and staging. He has shared

his longtime exploration of the body as an instrument of theatrical

expression through workshops and classes for actors, dancers, and

singers, throughout the world. He was a winner of a Golden Mask award

in 2006, as director of the opera Il Viaggio a Reims.Alain Maratrat

was born in Paris into a family far from the world of art; his father

was a train conductor and his mother had stopped working as a

dressmaker to raise her children.[1] He attended the Institute

National des Arts du Spectacle in Brussels, Belgium from 1969-1973

and, thirty years later, joined 3 fellow students from the class of

Jean-Claude Carrière, which was based on their acting aspirations and

experiences at INSAS.[2]In 1974 Maratrat was invited to join Peter

Brook’ s company, the International Centre for Theatre Research, and

he remained an active member of the company for nearly 20 years,

participating in most of the company's successful productions. He

acted, experimented and traveled the world with Brook's multi-cultural

assembly of actors, dancers, musicians and other performers. They

participated in theatrical encounters with audiences in native

villages, asylums schools and a prison, as well as traditional

theaters throughout the world. Working with Brook fed and developed

Maratrat's interest in creating theater that would touch and enliven

ordinary people, regardless of their culture.[3] Since leaving Brook's

company, Maratrat has managed active careers as an actor (film,

theater and television), theater and opera director, and acting

teacher.He has performed in films by directors Claude Berri, Amos
