Biography

What characterizes Josiane Lévêque best is her sense of derision and self-derision. Accordingly, this very active actress has played mainly comic parts either in traditional plays (Feydeau, Ionesco, Ayckbourn, Anouilh) or in the "café-théâtre" for which she writes her own spectacles. She was awarded the 1977 Prix Courteline for her performances in this theatrical genre. She has also played for the big screen, starting in 1969 as the ugly daughter of a notary in Marcel Aymé's movie adaptation of "Clérambard". She often appears in Jean Marboeuf's movies. On television, she appeared fifteen times as Danièle Zarka, the math teacher, in the successful series "Madame le Proviseur".
