Alain Ollivier (1938–2010) was a key figure in French theatre, both as an actor, director, and leader of major cultural institutions. Trained by masters such as Georges Wilson, he developed early on a taste for contemporary writing and demanding theatrical forms. In the 1970s, he established himself as a bold mediator by bringing to light authors who were still rarely performed in France. As head of the Studio-Théâtre de Vitry for nearly twenty years, he turned it into a renowned creative laboratory. There, he championed a rigorous, often radical theatre that questioned language and stage presence. In 2002, he took over the Théâtre Gérard-Philipe in Saint-Denis, where he continued his work as a discoverer and mentor.
