Christian Palustran was born in 1947 near Paris, in Saint-Cloud. He is a French playwright and storyteller.

His works – some of which are written for youth – have been performed and broadcast in France and several other countries.

Biography

Christian Palustran first lives in Paris. He develops a passion for writing and drama at an early age. After completing his undergraduate studies at the Sorbonne university, he was appointed professor in Normandy.[1] He puts on shows with his students and leads writing workshops from elementary school to university.[2] At the same time, he launches himself into the creation of texts and two of his first works, Escapade and Histoire d'oeuf (Story of an egg) are awarded and staged at the National One Act Competition in Metz (France). [3] [4]

Christian Palustran has written some thirty plays of various genres.[5] Many have been performed in France and in French-speaking countries. In Paris [6] [7] [8]and in other regions: Lille (National Dramatic Center for Youth, Avignon (National festival [9] etc.).

Likewise, in Switzerland,[10] in Canada [11] and in Belgium.[12] In the latter country, Un papillon jaune appelé Sphinx (A yellow Butterfly called Sphinx) and Les Méfaits du Bourbon (The Misdeeds of Bourbon) represented France at the international CIFTA Estivades (International Councel of Amateur Theater Summer Festival) in Marche-en-Famenne.[13] and La Chausse-trape (The Trap), at the first Namur International Festival.

Some of his plays were broadcast on the airwaves (Radio Suisse Romande and National cultural radio France-Culture [14] [15]...).

Several have been translated into different languages and have been performed abroad: in the USA (in New York [16] where Escapade won a first prize, [17] in Argentina [18] but also in Eastern European countries (Russia [19], Bulgaria [20] and Romania. [21]

Among them, we can cite many satirical comedies in which he derides our time.[22] [23] He is also the author of tragic monologues [24] [12] and social dramas. [25]

Christian Palustran is interested in theater for young people.[26] With false naivety or more directly, his works tackle contemporary problems, sometimes at the risk of surprising or disturbing (A yellow butterfly called Sphinx).[27]

Keen on languages, he sometimes translates other authors or contributes to the translation of his texts. He also supports the Francophonie, the organization of countries with French as an official or important language. Since 2009, he has annually chaired the Francophone Festival La Première in Kirov, Russia. [28]

Christian Palustran is also the author of several collections of tales: Le Crépuscule des fées (The Good People's Twilight) [29], Les Contes du croissant de lune (The Tales of the Crescent Moon), and Métamorphoses, mon amour (Metamorphoses, My Love), a contemporary treatment of Ovid [30]. Drawing inspiration from famous tales, these "strands of dreams", as the author calls them, often underline, ironically or facetiously, the flaws specific to our time. They were broadcast on various radio stations and were also said in public,at the National Festival of Storytellers of Chevilly-la-Rue near Paris and in various towns. They had for performers famous French actors [29].[31]).
