We’re excited to have actress Angèle Humeau join our agency—bringing with her a bold creative energy and a rich stage and screen experience. Angèle Humeau’s childhood unfolded like a backstage dream. Raised in a rustic farmhouse that doubled as a creative hub, she grew up surrounded by set pieces, costume racks, and the buzz of rehearsals. Her parents, founders of the Opéra de Guyenne, transformed her world into a living theatre; her playgrounds were opera houses, her lullabies were arias sung by her father, and her early mentors were the artists who passed through their doors.
Though her father was a classical singer and teacher, Angèle felt early on that opera wasn’t her path. It seemed too solitary, too strict. At just eleven, she had her answer: she would be an actress. Her training began informally, absorbing the rhythms of rehearsal and the art of direction from her mother. Later, she refined her craft at the Claude Mathieu school, then under the guidance of respected mentors like Susan Batson, Pierre Pradinas, Jean-Marie Binoche, Jean-Denis Monory, and Éric Szermann. Her great-uncle, Jean-Marie Rivière, a trailblazer of Parisian transformism and creator of the iconic Alcazar and Paradis Latin also left his creative mark.
Her professional debut came in the musical Au P’tit Bonheur La Chance by Lydie Muller, where she acted, sang, and danced. More roles followed, including Le Lifting de Mme Bénichou, Les Chaises by Eugène Ionesco, and Zorro at the Folies Bergère, directed by Christopher Renshaw.
Television became another vital thread in her career, with roles in diverse productions such as Les Rois Maudits directed by Josée Dayan, David Nolande by Nicolas Cuche, Mystère au Moulin Rouge by Stéphane Kappès, Les Petits Meurtres d’Agatha Christie – Un Cadavre sur l’Oreiller by Eric Woreth, Main Courante by Jean-Marc Thérin, the two seasons of Insomniaque by Simon Dubreucq, and Foujita directed by Kohei Oguri.
Between projects, Angèle began writing her first one-woman show, Tu Seras Mignonne, directed by Philippe Guoin. Rather than intimidate her, this solo adventure has opened up a new realm of creative freedom and vulnerability
