Charles Roubaud (Stage Director)
In 1986, he staged his first production - Jules Massenet`s opera Don Quichotte, in Marseilles. This production has been staged in most French opera houses, as well as the Opera Royale de Wallonie in Liege and San Francisco Opera. In 1987, he staged Rossini`s La cenerentola and, one year later in Marseilles, Henri Tomasi`s opera Don Juan de Manara (Miguel de Manara) and Poulenc`s Dialogues des carmelites. In 1989-1990, he continued working with the French opera repertoire, staging Debussy`s Pelleas et Melisande and Massenet`s Manon at the Opera de Bordeaux. In 1990 in Marseilles, the traditional Summer Nights festival opened with his production of Donizetti`s Lucia di Lammermoor and, in 1991, with his production of Bellini`s I puritani. He later staged the same production at the Opera d`Avignon, the Kennedy Center, Washington, and the Maestranza Theatre in Seville.
Before becoming a director in theatre, Charles Roubaud studied graphic arts and worked in advertising.
