Mini-Biography

Isabelle Ferron was born on January 27, 1967 in Poitiers
Poitiers
Poitiers is a city on the Clain river in west central France. It is a commune and the capital of the Vienne department and of the Poitou-Charentes region. The centre is picturesque and its streets are interesting for predominant remains of historical architecture, especially from the Romanesque...

, France. When she turned seven, her mother enrolled her in the Conservatoire de Poitiers to learn the art of dancing (which she was not fond of), and eventually to learn how to play piano. With her extreme talent and loads of energy, she decided to move to Poitiers to develop her skills. In 1987 she trained with Niels Arestrup, then with Maurice Benichou in 1988. Then from 1992 to 1997 she trained with John Strasberg.

Isabelle then entered the theater stage in 1986 with her first performance in Six Assassins Assassinés followed by Un Enfant Mort sur le Trottoir in the same year (she was 19). After long years filled with experiences on stage, she moved to try the screen. She played the role of Didier's wife, Murielle in Didier Bourdon and Bernard Campan's Le Pari [[(The Bet)]] in 1997 and more films. From then on, she took turns from being on screen to the stage. In 1999, she was chosen to play the very energetic Lady Capulet in Gerard Presgurvic's version of Roméo et Juliette
Roméo et Juliette
Roméo et Juliette is an opéra in five acts by Charles Gounod to a French libretto by Jules Barbier and Michel Carré, based on The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. It was first performed at the Théâtre Lyrique , Paris on 27 April 1867...

. She signed their contract without second thoughts, as she knew that she was about to interpret beautiful songs. She had once described her audition for the role, and said that she was first asked to sing a challenging, yet striking song, called La Haine (The Hate) and afterwards a song which she had found funny. The song was called Tu dois te marier (You Must Marry).

After more than a hundred performances as Lady Capulet,Isabelle left the cast on July 21, 2001 to continue her switches from film to stage. She was replaced by Karoline Blandin. Isabelle was still included in the music videos of the two songs, Verone and Aimer. She was also chosen to appear in some TV shows such as Julie Lescaut
Julie Lescaut
Julie Lescaut is a French-language police television series. It has been distributed since 1992 on TF1 , La Une-RTBF and TSR ; the show remains active as of 2010. It details the investigations of detective Julie Lescaut and her team...

. Her other stage performances include: "Y’a-t-il un Magicien dans la Salle"(Is there a magician in the room?) and "Un violon sur le toit", the French version of the classic Fiddler on the Roof. Her solo in the aforementioned turned out to be a single as it is probably the only song with coherent lyrics. Isabelle won an award for her role as Golde in 2007 during the Marius awards. She has several plans for her career. The first one is to write a musical with her colleague, Anna Angeli. She describes that in that certain play, she would have a scene where she is alone with the monologue and the music. If not, then Isabelle dreams to earn more roles for films, stage plays and musicals, like Roméo et Juliette. Isabelle Ferron continues to work as it is one of her strongest and deepest desires. In 2008, she was included in the Festival Diva Music (a festival of twenty different musicals). She performed in L'ultime rendez-vous and a solo lecture-musical called Chienne.
