Elisabeth en quelques mots …
Elisabeth, briefly …
Simply paraphrasing George Gershwin’s masterpiece, one could say : “A French Woman in Warsaw”, and that would be Elisabeth’s briefest feature … But actually it’s properly impossible to summarize this young woman with these only few words.
Born in France, with strong polish roots, Elisabeth concentrates in her personality what’s best in these two cultures : the elegance and the French rational mindset, combined with the passion and the Polish natural way of life … Incompatible? Absolutely not … “Ela” is the living proof …
The reason of her coming to Poland, or rather her coming back to her background, is quite simple : she wants to play on stage ! And as she loves challenges, after four years of hard work she graduated from the Polish National School of Cinema in Łódź. She got the best results of her class, and foremost became the first foreigner to graduate in the history of this faculty.
Her temperament and her good mood is particularly appreciated by the Polish audience. The public discovers her thanks to the TV show Europa da się lubić (We can like Europe), that started in 2003. Its aim was to open Poland to the other countries of the European Union, and make Polish people know more about their European neighbors. Big success. The show is Poland’s favorite. Elisabeth, becomes the ambassador of France in Poland, captivates the attention of the viewers with a touching charisma, through a perfect knowledge of the qualities and the weaknesses of her both homelands. Elisabeth’s France becomes plenty of humor, spontaneous and friendly.
And thanks to her presence in the mass media, the Poles have the opportunity to learn more about the French language or about the tastes of the French cuisine. She also showed that it is useless to trust appearances, because some stereotypes can be destroyed by a simple smile.
Or a simple dance… Because Elisabeth participated in a season of the TV show Stricly Come Dancing, which beat all the records of audience every week. Moreover she proves that nowadays’ world doesn’t have borders anymore. A French woman with polish roots dancing with a South African dancer …
Elisabeth won the sympathy of the jury and public. Participating in the chorography of the dances, she brought her crazy touch on each of her appearances : her paso-doble danced on the rhythm of « Smooth Criminal » transported the viewers right to a Spanish bullfight, her Viennese waltz on Nick Case and Kylie Minogue’s “Where the wild roses grow” was really appreciated …
Today, Elisabeth isn’t the Little French girl anymore, who participates in TV shows, but a professional presenter in high audience programs. But her life is first of all linked to the Theater and the Cinema.
