Biography
Frédéric Saurel, then a college student, auditioned for a play by Luigi Pirandello, and thus obtained his first role. Describing himself as a "bad student", except in French and theater, he repeated his second year before stopping everything to study drama. From 1984 to 1986, Fred Saurel followed the drama course of Alain Janey and Paulette Frantz.
In 1986, at the age of 19, Fred Saurel was admitted to the National Conservatory of Dramatic Art in Paris (1986 -1988).2 He played in the theater in “Les dégoudis de la 11ème” with Robert Hirsch and Darry Cowl. He will return to the theater in 2016 in a single on stage: “The Soliloquy of Grimm” by Bruno George.
In the cinema, he has played in more than 30 films (“Give me wings” by Nicolas Vanier) and on television in nearly fifty series or TV films (“Baron Noir, Season 3” for Canal +). Also a producer and director, he directed two feature films (“Bâtards” TPS/Pathé Vidéo) and produced around ten short films.
Fred Saurel created S.P.A.C.E (European Artistic and Cinematographic Production Company) in 1989, producing independent short and feature films, based in Aveyron.
