Arthur Nauzyciel is a director and actor, recently directed by Pascal Rambert, Olivier Assayas and Pascal Kirsch. Trained at Antoine Vitez's school at the Théâtre national de Chaillot, he seeks to make the theatre a space of reparation that is both intimate and historical, and to revive its ritual and collective aspects. Among his twenty or so productions are Jan Karski (Mon nom est une fiction) (2011), La Mouette, presented in the Cour d'Honneur in Avignon (2012), La Dame aux camélias (2018), Mes frères (2020), and La Ronde (2022), created at the National Theatre in Prague.
In 2015, he staged Jean Genet's Splendid's with American actors, recreated in video conference during the lockdown. From 2007 to 2016, he directed the Centre dramatique national d'Orléans, and since 2017 he has been the director of the Théâtre National de Bretagne and its school in Rennes.
