Biography
Born in Barcelona 51 years ago, Luis has managed to combine theatre with cinema and television, although he has devoted most of his extensive career to the stage. He studied Law at Barcelona’s Autonomous University after which he attended various acting courses: Uta Hagen (1986‐87) in New York or John Strasberg (1985) among others.
He was one of the founders of the Teatre Lliure and was its director from 1992 to 1998. He has acted in and directed over thirty productions for the company. In 1999, he directed and starred in Shakespeare’s “Hamlet” for the Festival Grec. Among the authors he has staged and performed are David Mamet (“Speed the Plow”) Molière (“George Dandin”, “Le isanthrope” and “L’école des femmes”) and Ibsen (“Hedda Gabler” and “The Master‐Builder”), Pirandello (“Mountain Giants”) and Thomas Bernhard (“Histrionics”).
He has appeared in over thirty films, working with directors such as Pilar Miró (“El pájaro de la felicidad”), Vicente Aranda (“Si te dicen que caí”), Mario Camus (“Después del sueño”, “Adosados” and “La ciudad de los prodigios”), Julio Medem (“Caótica Ana”), Montxo Armendáriz (“Obaba”) and Jose Luis Iborra (“El sueño de Valentín”) among others.
In 1986 he won the National Acting Award, in 2000 the Silver Fotogramas for Theater and the Butaca Award for Best Catalonian Actor for “Valentín”.
