Lily-Ann Perrin

Hello Lyly-Ann,

On the occasion of the event Radium Girls, Beautés Mortelles that you created through Unlock Dreams Factory, currently at Le Dédale until December 23, 2022, we wanted to look back at your journey at IESA.

  • Which program did you take at IESA?

I took the international MBA "Art and Culture Administration" jointly at IESA and PSB, with the Performing Arts specialization.

  • How did you find the IESA teaching staff?

Fabulous! The program was very career-oriented. We enjoyed inspiring and renowned encounters both in Paris and in Europe, namely Berlin and Marseille. The other trips, to Monaco and Maastricht, were unfortunately canceled because of COVID.

  • What is your job now?

I founded Playful Culture, cultural products and services that sparkle!

On the one hand, the Playful Culture game app is now in the Apple and Android stores with an augmented reality Ancient Greece Save-Game for children aged 7 to 11.

On the other hand, I provide services for cultural organizations. My clients include Etoile Music School, Explorhappy, which specializes in StreetArt, Biscott, an online course platform for children, and the Compagnie du Reflet, which specializes in performing arts and immersive escape games.

  • What does the job of Administrator at the Compagnie du Reflet involve?

I first started in purely production roles, structuring legal statuses, putting together support applications for artistic projects, and handling operational management. Then gradually, my duties expanded to digital marketing for events and to leading press and client communication in close collaboration with the Artistic Direction and the Communication team.

  • How were these classes important for you in your current job?

The classes are directly related to my current job, particularly theater production. Nevertheless, I loved all the classes taught, and each of them fed my creativity and my skills.

The Compagnie du Reflet’s activity is growing; all the figures have doubled compared to 2021: the number of projects, the budget committed, the actual number of visitors, etc. All of the Company’s roles need reinforcement, so Léa Letzelter joined us and holds the position of Cultural Production Assistant.

  • What did IESA bring you?

IESA gave me valuable theoretical and operational skills, but also an incredible network in art and the performing arts. I was able to volunteer and carry out assignments with IESA’s partners during my training and discover different sectors from the inside. This constant link with professionals influences choices, and I still see it today in the various cultural recruitments I carry out.

  • Thank you for answering these questions, and we wish you every success for the future!

A thousand thanks!
