With a background in classical music, Grégory turned to acting, followed by dance and singing. In 2009, he won a scholarship to Jacob’s Pillow (USA), where choreographer Chet Walker trained him in American musical theatre.

The Théâtre du Châtelet hired him for the production of MY FAIR LADY. He subsequently spent three years dancing in the world tour of NOTRE-DAME DE PARIS. Upon returning to France, Grégory appeared in CABARET alongside Nicole Croisille. He landed the role of the Scarecrow in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s THE WIZARD OF OZ, returned to the Théâtre du Châtelet for the production of KISS ME, KATE, and then went to Brussels for the world premiere of the French-language version of EVITA.

In 2018, Grégory co-wrote and composed the musical LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES with Kevin Meunier.

He later appeared in WONDERFUL TOWN at the Opéra de Toulon, directed by Olivier Bénézech, who subsequently cast him as Jack in INTO THE WOODS. He returned to the Théâtre du Châtelet with COLE PORTER IN PARIS and went on to perform roles in WEST SIDE STORY, SURCOUF, and SINGIN’ IN THE RAIN.

In 2022, Grégory composed the music for the musical LES DEMOISELLES (DU TÉLÉPHONE), performed in Paris and on tour.

In 2023, the COMPAGNIE ALEXIS GRUSS hired him as a new writer, composer, and director for their anniversary show LES FOLIES GRUSS - 50 ANS, which ran for two seasons. The show was filmed by France Télévisions, broadcast during the holiday season, and remains available for streaming until December 2026.

In 2025, Grégory composed the music and songs for the musical FEMMES DE GUERRE, currently on tour.

Following these creative projects, Grégory is delighted to return to the stage for the production of LES DEMOISELLES DE ROCHEFORT at the Théâtre du Lido. He also reprises his role as the Scarecrow in a new production of the musical THE WIZARD OF OZ.
