SINGER ACTOR DANCER
SINGER ACTOR DANCER
Diren Alca is a French singer, actor, and dancer, born in Alsace in 2002 and currently based in Paris. From an early age, he developed a deep passion for voice and stage performance. In 2014, attending a Beyoncé concert at the Stade de France became a life-changing moment. It marked the beginning of a clear artistic direction: the stage would be his space, and his voice the heart of his craft.
He trained in pop singing and dance for over ten years, before relocating to Paris to refine his skills. He studied classical voice at the Schola Cantorum under mezzo-soprano Nadine Denize. With a rare countertenor-tenor range, Diren is equally at ease performing bel canto and contemporary pop. He enhanced his stage interpretation at ATLA, and took part in a vocal workshop led by Youjeen (Cherry Filter, Wild Flower ft. RM of BTS), which bridged live performance with K-pop vocal discipline.
Alongside his vocal training, Diren pursued a demanding acting path. He studied for two years at Cours Simon (french drama school), working on both classical and contemporary theatre under Christine Hadida, and later completed a masterclass at the Giles Foreman Centre for Acting, focusing on on-camera work and audition technique.
In 2025, he landed his first two film roles, both currently in post-production:
- In The Silver Cutlass, a short film directed by Jarno Pit as part of his graduation project at EICAR (International Division), Diren plays the younger version of the main character.
- In Le Revers de la Pièce, directed by Tiphanie Gousseau for her master’s program at 3iS, he portrays Matthieu, a radiant and carefree young man deeply bonded with his childhood best friend.
He also made his theatre stage debut at Cours Simon, performing in plays such as Jamais trois… sans quatre by Maurice Mercier and On passe dans huit jours by Sacha Guitry.
He continues to train regularly in L.A. style, hip-hop, and street-jazz, mainly with Delphine Lemaitre, and attends weekly classes in leading Paris studios. He has also participated in workshops led by choreographers from the K-pop industry, including:
J RICK (Rover - Kai, Guilty - Taemin, Get A Guitar - RIIZE)
KINKY (Whiplash, Spicy - Aespa, BEBE - STAYC, Bubble, Teddy Bear)
After more than a decade of vocal and stage training, Diren is now preparing for the release of his very first single, marking the official beginning of his journey as a recording artist. This project is the culmination of years of personal development, technical refinement, and creative vision. His musical identity blends vocal power, emotional depth, and strong visual performance.
His sound draws inspiration from artists such as Beyoncé, Shawn Mendes, Taemin, TXT, Zara Larsson, Jessie J, Faouzia, Adele, Maria Callas, Demi Lovato, Jonghyun, Chloë, Ariana Grande, Celine Dion, Sam Smith, Cynthia Erivo, and Amy Winehouse.
This debut single represents a major milestone, the moment where years of dedication, training, and passion converge into a bold new chapter as a solo artist.
Fluent in French, English (with an American accent), and Turkish, and conversational in Korean, Diren also holds a degree in English Literature and Civilization (LLCER). His multilingual, multicultural profile allows him to perform across languages, genres, and international settings with authenticity and range.
Diren has also built a strong digital presence, with over 360,000 followers on TikTok, where he creates humorous, satirical, and character-driven content inspired by everyday life, society, and his journey as an artist.
