The Secret Life of
Original improvised theater play mixing daily life and imagination, based on the concept of day-dreaming by The Modestos.
I'm Alix Gentil, born in Paris, France. I approach every project with passion and dedication.
Having lived in the U.S. as a child and residing in Barcelona since 2009, I speak English and Spanish with a slight accent, in addition to my native French.
Much of my career has developed in English and Spanish, participating in five feature films in these languages. I had the honor of playing a role in an episode of the series "El Caso" on RTVE, but one of my greatest achievements was creating the film "La Mue," where I was the lead actress, producer, and director. This project received invitations to prestigious film festivals, making a significant impact on my acting development.
In addition to my on-camera work, I’ve spent the last ten years creating and performing shows in improvised theater in French, Spanish, and English, which has taken me to international festivals. My improvisation skills bring a fresh and adaptable energy to my performances, keeping me creatively alive and active on a daily basis.
Living in a multicultural environment, I reflect this diversity in my career. I'm always looking for new challenges that push me to grow artistically.
With my extensive experience and training, I'm ready for new and exciting projects.
