Biography

Jean Danet was born in Brittany to a family of sailors and priests. He initially pursued a naval career but, after being injured during a World War II landing, he discovered his true calling in theater by directing plays, starting with "Gardiens de Phare" for the "Foyer du Marin." He studied drama in Paris under Maurice Donneaud and Maurice Escande before making his official debut in "Maya," where he performed six different roles. Danet acted in numerous plays, but his crowning achievement was founding the "Tréteaux de France" in 1959, a renowned touring company that performed across France, often in venues without traditional theaters. He passed away peacefully in 2001, a few months after handing over leadership to Marcel Maréchal, having fulfilled his life's mission. Alongside his deep passion for theater, Danet had several television roles and was active in film during the 1950s. His most notable performance was as the cynical Georges Duroy in Louis Daquin's adaptation of Maupassant's "Bel Ami.
