Yvonne Lex

After she was brought up to be an actress she was active in the Antwerp music-hall scene of the fifties. In 1958 she started her career on the 'Koninklijke Vlaamse schouwburg' in Brussels as a dramatic actress till 1985. The sixties and the seventies where the highlights of her theatre career. Meanwhile she started in 1969 her own theatrecompany 'TIL' ÿheatergezelschap Ivonne Lex. In 1986 she became the director of the Antwerp K.N.S. 'Koninklijke Nederlandse Schouwburg', but this wasn't so successful as the other things she had realized. She was the daughter of an other Flemish actress : Helena Van Herck, and it was from her that Yvonne lex found her way to a successful theater - and not so much movie- career in Flanders and the Netherlands.
