Following a Master’s degree (McGill University) and a Ph.D. (University of Montréal) on Montréal theatre during the Belle Époque, Jean-Marc pursued research on subsequent periods of theatre history, particularly the post-moderne and the contemporary periods. He observes how the advent of electricity (end of the 19th century) and of digital technology (end of the 20th century) has deeply transformed theatrical practices, and as such, he has, for many years, dedicated the core of his research to intermediality, performativity and theatricality.
