Franck BuzZ

Franck BuzZ is co-founder and artistic director of SUBITO, one of the oldest international improv festivals in France. As a professional performer, director and teacher for 12 years, Franck BuzZ enjoys playing free and organic improvisation.
Trained by famous clowns (Mump & Smoot, Ludor Citrik) and international improv masters (Randy Dixon, Patti Stiles, Joe Bill, Susan Messing, Shawn Kinley, Steve Jarand, …), Franck likes to use his extensive background in physical theatre, clowning, mime and masks to mix the guidelines of Del Close and Keith Johnstone with a European theatrical approach. Over the years he has featured in different improv festivals to teach and perform in 15 countries in all 5 continents. In 2017 he went to Italy, Germany, Portugal, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Dubai and Australia and has been invited to China for the first time in 2018.

As a former lighting designer Franck BuzZ created the innovative format Impro LightboX where lighting atmospheres are the starting point of each new scene. Impro LightboX won a Jury’s Trophy at the Impronale Festival (Germany) in 2015 and has also played all around the world (Europe, Dubai, Australia, …)

When Franck is not improvising he likes to travel, do scuba diving, whale watching, discover other cultures and take improv lessons every day with his 3-year-old daughter.
