Camille Rebetez

I love multiplicity. I undertake projects in a protean manner that I embody in three parallel careers: writing, pedagogy, and cultural mediation.

I have written about thirty plays and scripts for comics, television, and cinema, including the seriesThe/Indociles.

But writing is not enough; it is also and above all important for me to transmit. I taught theatre for 15 years at Secondary II and occasionally in various institutions, gymnasiums, and higher education, and led workshops in German-speaking Switzerland and Poland.

I left teaching in 2020 to embark on the adventure of the Théâtre du Jura, where I was the Head of Cultural Mediation at its opening and during the first three seasons. And I naturally return to training. Because I cannot do without it.

I have also participated in several writing residencies and international festivals in Poland, around the programme 10 out of 10, focused on learning French through theatre.

I speak more or less well 6 languages and I have studied 10. Because I love grammar.
