He explained this failure, his adventures in "citizen theatre" and related his artistic journey in his interview collection, ''Passions civiles''.Today, he is teaching director at the high school of the Théâtre national de Bretagne. In 2008 he won the "Laurence Olivier Award" in London for the opera ''Pelléas et Mélisande''.
