Why Coralie Custos Quatreville recommends Adama Diop
“Who migrates, and how do we encounter otherness? Adama Diop opens up unexpected pathways.”
Adama Diop is an actor born in Dakar and based in France, where he trained at the Conservatoire national superieur d'art dramatique in Paris. He works mainly in public theatre, taking on classical and contemporary repertoire with directors on French stages, including Pauline Bayle's adaptations of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, alongside roles in film and television. His work matters for the way it stretches who gets to inhabit canonical roles in French theatre, bringing a Senegalese voice and body
