The Cours Florent is a private drama school in Paris, France, established in 1967 by French theater actor François Florent.
The school's facilities are located on three sites in the 19th arrondissement of Paris: Rue Archereau, Rue Mathis, and Avenue Jean-Jaurès. The Cours Florent also has satellite campuses in Brussels, Belgium; Montpellier, France; and Bordeaux, France.
Programs
The Cours Florent is known as one of France's most prestigious drama schools. It offers a three-year acting and theatre program for children, teenagers, and adults. Since 2011, the school has also offered a three-year program called "Acting in English" for both French and foreign English-speaking students. Auditions are organized in May and September, and two intensive summer programs are available in July and August.
The school also hosts a specialized class to prepare students for the competitive examination of the prestigious Conservatoire national supérieur d'Art dramatique de Paris (CNSAD), as well as the École nationale supérieure des arts et techniques du théâtre (ENSATT) in Lyon and the École supérieure d'art dramatique of the National Theatre of Strasbourg.
