Born in Tunisia, Alain Boublil emigrated to Paris at the age of eighteen. He graduated in Economics only to end up before too long writing his first French pop lyrics. He then discovered the existence of the musical theatre after seeing West Side Story and Jesus Christ Superstar and went on to team up with composer, Claude-Michel Schönberg. Over twenty years their partnership gave birth to La Révolution Française and the award winning Les Misérables, Miss Saigon and Martin Guerre. He has also co-produced with Claude-Michel Schönberg the major cast albums from all their shows world-wide. On his own his recent work includes the play The Diary of Adam and Eve, based of short stories by Mark Twain. Alain lives in London with Marie and is the proud father of four sons. |
