Ioan Coman is part of the rarer category of actors who add to their talent an enormous amount of work, discipline, intelligence, study, qualities that recommend him for leading and large-scale roles.\u00a0<\/em>From his debut, Ioan Coman was cast in the role of Victor Petrini ("If Love Aren't..." by Elena Preda and Eugen \u0162ugulea, based on the novel "The Most Beloved of the Earth" by Marin Preda), a role of great responsibility, which obviously exceeded the capacity of a young man to understand and create the character of a philosopher of Petrini's caliber. And yet, even if the show was not a definite success, with shortcomings stemming from the "lack of drama" - which dramatizations often sin - the actor created a credible character at least, although he still lacked depth, the meditative side, the sharpness of thought, and life experience. He certainly used the professional experience acquired in the careful preparation, under the guidance of director Sergiu Savin, of the role of Beckman in the show "Outside, in Front of the Door" by Wolfgang Borchert.<\/em><\/p>\n

The chroniclers Dumitru Chiril\u0103 and Mircea Morariu recorded Ioan Coman's success, predicting a bright future for him. This was confirmed recently (2009), when director Cristi Juncu cast him in the difficult role of Prospero in William Shakespeare's play "The Tempest" (Toma Caragiu Theatre, Ploie\u015fti), a performance that was widely applauded at the National Festival in Bucharest.<\/em><\/p>\n

In Oradea, he also played, with aplomb, with exceptional dedication, leading roles, to which he gave much of his personality: seriousness and a delicacy, a poetry that come from his own way of being: direct, sincere, sure of himself: Gheorghe ("The Scourge" by IL Caragiale) was dramatic, without falling into melodramatic..., the Lord ("Dog's Heart" by Mikhail Bulgakov) was labile and strange, in a show relatively well received by the specialized press. In the show "Cold" by Marin Sorescu, he was Radu the Handsome, elegantly thought out and constructed, but perhaps lacking the subtext with which Marin Sorescu has accustomed us to accompany his characters.<\/em><\/p>\n

In Plautus's "Pseudolus" he was the protagonist of a performance that was not very convincing \u2013 so much so that his character seemed like a stormy island: he did not hold back.<\/em><\/p>\n

He matured and "grew professionally", acting over time, under the direction of important figures in Romanian directing. Today he is a mature, responsible actor, who categorically refuses to fit into a pre-established mold.<\/em><\/p>\n

He is currently an actor and the head of the Drama Department of the "Toma Caragiu" Theater in Ploie\u015fti.<\/em><\/p>\n
