François Alu was crowned star dancer of theOpéra de Paris, the weekend of Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 April. It is the supreme consecration for those who started in Cher, near Bourges.

He finally reaches the supreme grail. Previously leading dancer, François Alu moved into another dimension, becoming a star dancer at the Paris Opera. A consecration, for those whose life course is not so classic, and the atypical silhouette. If the dancers of the Opera are recognizable by their filiform allure, François Alu is more athletic and impresses with his pirouettes and his turns in the air.

A few years ago, the star was still far away. His qualities were detected very early by his mother, a dance teacher in Fussy in the Cher. To ten years old, he entered the school of the Paris Opera. François Alu is also inspired by hip-hop dance when he does classical, a culture that brings him closer to his brother. After football, the gym or even judo, François Alu finally put on the spikes. In addition to dancing, he also makes movies, writes and shoots a one-man show.
