Biography
Born in Quebec City, Christian Lapointe studied theatre first in Moncton, New Brunswick. Later, he was admitted as a student in the acting program of Québec Conservatorium and studied as a director at the National Theatre School of Canada. In fall 2001, he staged a first triptych of short plays of William Butler Yeats and therefore appears as a curiosity in the Quebec theatre world. Following a co-production with a theatre institution in Hanoi and the staging of a second play of the Irish poet Yeats, he was admitted in 2003 to the development program for directors at the National Theatre School of Canada. After his schooling in 2006 he signed a mise en scène of Axël from Auguste Villiers de L'Isle-Adam. Over time he emerged as a restless figure in Quebec theatre due to the consistency and rigor of his approach. His works were presented among others at the National Arts Centre, in the official selection of the Festival d'Avignon and TransAmériques Festival.
Free electron of Quebec theatre, he is the founder of Peril Theatre and co-artistic director of Théâtre Blanc. He was associate artist with Recto-Verso from 2011 to 2015. He completed his term for this organization in the spring of 2015 by giving himself a representation of almost 70 hours around the work of Antonin Artaud.
Teacher, he regularly teaches in the École supérieure de théâtre of the Université du Québec à Montreal and at the National Theatre School of Canada.
