Birth year?[edit]

@Statesofexception: At Alain Platel (Q983968) the birth year is 1959, referenced to [1], can you check? Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 18:02, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah there's disagreement about this throughout the sources. Perhaps it was a mistake in an early bio or press release that's been copied and copied. However, the birth year on his own company's website is 1956, as it is in an article that he co-authored, and in the World Encyclopedia of Contemporary Theatre so I figured I'd go with that.

Thanks, I've added the alternative birth date to wikidata, with those references. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 18:28, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
