Pierre Jandron

Pierre Jandron is a French theater professional who served as the deputy director of the prestigious Avignon Festival, one of the oldest and most renowned theater festivals in Europe. He was appointed to the festival in February 2023 but was recently dismissed due to allegations of sexual misconduct from a previous position. Despite an internal investigation that found no evidence of such behavior at the festival, the existence of prior accusations created a challenging environment for him, leading to his resignation just weeks before the festival's commencement.
