In the team of Bye Bye
For the past month, Pierre-Yves has been taking part in the filming of sketches for Bye Byehe who officially joined the team of actors, alongside Guylaine Tremblay, Sarah-Jeanne Labrosse, François Bellefeuille and Patrick Huard.
“Everyone is so nice and funny,” he says. I never felt like the new kid on the block. I really liked that. I was wondering if it was going to serve as a trial period and if they were going to make me do just two characters. But no, I’m here often. »
While we see him brilliantly embody characters in Club Soly et Completely high school, Pierre-Yves acknowledges wanting to further develop the game side in the coming years.
“Doing comic sketches, I like that. Looks like I can’t see myself playing in STAT. But I like to play the parody of STAT. I like to play. I don’t necessarily find myself extraordinary. I think I have a limited palette. A dramatic comedy like The invincibles, I would have loved to play there. »
