Graduated from the National Theatre school of Canada in 2004, where he received the Lieutenant Governor's Award, Hubert Proulx is an extremely active artist on the Quebec cultural scene. He works as much in institutional theatres than in new-wave theatres. He has participated in more than thirty productions, half of those being original creations (with screenplays by Fabien Cloutier, Alexis Martin, Évelyne de la Chenelière and Larry Tremblay, to name a few). In the classic repertory, he has played Tchekov, Shakespeare, Gorki, Pinter and Dumas. Additionally, he earned the Olivier Reichenbach Emerging Prize awarded by the Théâtre du Nouveau Monde for his role of Joey in Le Retour by Harold Pinter.
He was part of many contemporary dance creations, notably Suie by Dave St-Pierre. In the summer of 2019, he was part of the musical Mamma Mia, under the direction of Serge Postigo.
Moreover, Hubert has a magnificent career in television and cinema. He has played, among others, in the series District 31, Au secours de Béatrice, Mensonges, L'échappée, Unité 9, Portrait Robot, Les petits rois, La maison des folles, Lou et Sophie, Classé secret and Mégantic. He embodied the hectic Pouliot in Léo, series created by Fabien Cloutier and plays the troubled Pierre Poirier in the daily show Indéfendable.
On the big screen, he has played in very popular films (Chasse-Galerie, Borderline, De Père en flic), but Hubert shines as well in smaller productions (Déserts, Maudite Poutine, Les lignes ennemies). We have had the pleasure of seeing him in Répertoire des villes disparues by Denis Côté, Vivre à 100 milles à l'heure by Louis Bélanger and recently in Monia Chokri’s Babysitter. He will also be part of Pier-Philippe Chevigny’s next film titled Rive-sud. He plays in a few music videos and many short films, namely Va jouer dehors, Black Friday and Silence.
In parallel, Hubert also leads a musical project as a singer-songwriter: a mixture of folk, blues, grunge and punk elements.
