Luc Boulanger
With a graduate certificate in journalism, Luc Boulanger first distinguished himself through his writing. A prolific author, he has written about sixty plays published online and performed worldwide, from Fermont to Kyrgyzstan, via Singapore and Geneva.
He is the co-founder of the Animagination theatre troupe, which has been presenting shows for young audiences for over 35 years. In addition to conceiving the plays, he has also been an actor. The troupe performs between 50 and 100 times a year in Quebec and French-speaking Canada. Animagination had the privilege of working with author Dominique Demers on the creation and presentation of a play featuring the character of Mademoiselle Charlotte.
In 1996, he participated in the creation of La Chapelle Spectacles, the performance venue in his neighborhood, where he served as the first coordinator for three years. He has remained an active collaborator of this venue, and several of his theatrical productions premiered there.

A great film enthusiast, Luc has been making films and short video productions since he was ten years old. For the organization Entr’Actes, which offers training to people with disabilities, he directed L’invasion des fraises galactiques, a science-fiction pastiche rich in special effects. Furthermore, he is passionate about computers, proficient in HTML, and constantly explores Photoshop software. He designs most of his show posters and loves outdoor photography. Occasionally, he accepts photography contracts.
A member of the Union des Artistes (UDA) and, for six years, president of the board of directors of the Association québécoise des auteurs et autrices dramatiques (AQAD), Luc Boulanger is concerned by the socio-economic conditions of his peers. He thus contributed to the establishment of a collective agreement for self-producing artists.
In September 2013, Luc Boulanger received a medal from the National Assembly for the dissemination of his works and his commitment to his community.
