    Mathilde Ahmed Sarrot studied acting at the school Les Enfants Terribles in Paris. She played in a range of films, shorts and gave her voice to dubbing.  But this is on stage; through a number of plays she was involved in that she found the most pleasure to act. She also worked in the administration of Theatre 71 in Paris, in the heart of the contemporary living arts scene. Passionate for theatre and object theatre, she is today willing to transmit her passion and the pleasure she has as an actor as well as a spectator.
