Guy Provost

As his father had an amateur theatre troup in Hull, he began acting as a child. In the 1940s he became a member of "Les Compagnons de St-Laurent", a theatre troup directed by Father Émile Legault, in which he worked with Gilles Pelletier, Jean Coutu and others. Later going to France, he worked first for Jean Dasté at the Comédie de Saint-Étienne then at the TNP (Théâtre National Populaire) for Jean Vilar with 'Gérard Philippe' and Philippe Noiret among others. Coming back to Québec in the 1950s, he was an important actor in theatre, tv and movies.
