Anne Dorval: Conquering Stage Fright and Embracing Decisive Encounters

2023-11-03 02:15:49

Anne Dorval, known for her great virtuosity and her immense range of playing, suffers from terrible stage fright, “a kind of paranoia on premiere nights”, which even seems to increase over time.

Featured at TNM in the room I’m writing to you in the middle of a beautiful storm at the beginning of the year, the actress was even told by the director, Maxime Carbonneau, on the evening of the premiere last January, “that he had never seen anyone with such stage fright”. she said on the set of Martin Matte and directThursday evening.

“When I was younger, I had stage fright, but not like now, and on premiere nights, I would look through the cracks in the curtains to see if there were people I knew because that stimulated me. Now it’s something impossible, it’s unimaginable that I could do that,” she explained Thursday evening.

“I do not want to know. I want it to be an anonymous crowd,” she added, while specifying that she began to relax after about ten minutes on stage.

The one whose talents we were able to appreciate in the miniseries The night Laurier Gaudreault woke up on Club illico, returned to the stage last winter, after 12 years of absence.

Voice of scientist Cathy Vaillancourt

Originally from Noranda, in Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Anne Dorval also speaks for scientist Cathy Vaillancourt, who is interested in the effects of emissions from the Horne foundry on the health of women, particularly that of pregnant women, their babies, as well as on children.

“By reading about her, I learned that 98% of the arsenic contained in the air in Quebec is concentrated in the sky of Rouyn-Noranda,” specified Anne Dorval, grandmother of little Paul for almost two years. .

The decisive encounters

Afraid that one day life would end, Anne Dorval informed Martin Matte, Thursday evening, that Xavier Dolan – with whom she remained close after filming the film I killed my mother –, Pierre Bernard, René Richard Cyr and Serge Denoncourt had had a positive impact on his career and personal life.

“I had the chance to make decisive encounters which changed the course of my personal and professional life as well,” she told Martin Matin.

“These are people who have been very, very important,” continued the actress.

Surprise guests

With Arnaud Soly, the reserve guest who made a surprise appearance at Espace St-Denis in the middle of the show, the actress revisited her filmography in the game Mime your career. In particular, she had to mime The parents et The heart has its reasons.

Daniel Grenier was invited on set to present unusual objects found in flea markets. An absurd, but nice segment.

Anne Dorval and Martin Matte then concluded the show with The teleprompter interview. A sketch which gave rise to a lot of laughter, but also a few moments of confusion.

Martin Matte and direct is presented every Thursday, 8 p.m., on TVA. Next week, Martin will receive Fabien Cloutier, Christine Morency and Mélissa Bédard.
