About Our Team
Alil Vardar
The Author
Born in Belgium in 1970, Alil showed great interest in the theater in his early years. He created his first acting duo at 20, Les Fous Alliés (“Two Crazy Allies”), and his experience on stage took off. He later moved to France where he became a stand up expert. From 2000 to 2003, Alil improved the writing on his play, Le Clan Des Divorcées, and acted on a risky idea: to play Brigitte, one of the three divorcees, himself. Thanks to the success of Le Clan, Alil and his brother Hazis own and manage four theaters in Paris including the mythic 1,000 seat theater, Le Palace, and three theaters in the French provinces of Nice, Strasburg and Lille.
Alil continues to write and produce, three of his shows are currently playing in Paris: 10 Ans de Mariage (“10 Years of Marriage”), Familles (Re)composées (“Reconstructed Families”) and Le Clan des Divorcées.
