Véronique Côté is an actress, author and director. Since leaving the Quebec Drama Conservatory in 2002, she has performed in nearly thirty theatre productions and has been directed in particular by Édith Patenaude, Wajdi Mouawad, Frédéric Dubois and Steve Gagnon. She was in the cast of 1984 (Théâtre du Trident / Théâtre Denise-Pelletier) and Fendre les lacs (Théâtre aux Écuries / Théâtre Périscope). We could also see her talent in Attentat (Théâtre de Quat’sous) and La fête sauvage (Théâtre de Quat’sous), two creations in which she collaborated as co-author and as director. 

On the small screen, we were able to see Véronique in Complexe G, a production by Pierre Paquin, as well as in Léo, a show by Fabien Cloutier, broadcasted on Club Illico. On the big screen, Véronique was in the cast of Madame Mollard, a short film by L. Hurtubise and M-Émilie St-Pierre. 

As a director, she directed the plays Faire l’amour, Scalpée and Venir au monde by Anne-Marie Olivier. Her children's plays Flots, Tout ce qui brille voit and Les choses berçantes, for which she also directed, had a magnificent reputation in Quebec and France. 

As an author, she co-wrote, with Steve Gagnon, the collection Chaque automne j’ai envie de mourir, published in the Hamac collection. She published her play Tout ce qui tombe - a finalist for the Governor General's Awards in 2013 - at Éditions Leméac, and at Nouveau Projet (Atelier 10), she published La vie habitable, the collectives S’appartenir(e) and La fête sauvage, as well as the articles Îles (trois) and La consigne lumineuse. The political project Ne renonçons à rien, published by Lux, also benefits from her writing. 

With the play Je me soulève, a collective that she co-directs with Gabrielle Côté, she proves once again that her vision and her undeniable talent make her a necessary voice to fuel poetry in the community. Véronique also writes columns in Le Devoir as well as on the radio, on the ICI Première channel.
