Alexandre Goyette

King Dave was first staged in 2005 as a solo one-man show in which Goyette played all of the characters himself. The film adaptation featured several actors.

In 2020, Goyette collaborated with actor Anglesh Major to update the story with Black Lives Matter themes so that Major could star in a revival for the Théàtre Jean-Duceppe; in 2023, Patrick Emmanuel Abellard also starred in an English-language translation of the Black-themed version for Centaur Theatre.

In addition to King Dave, he has had other supporting roles in film and television, and has had stage roles including Victor in Down Dangerous Passes Road (Le chemin des Passes-Dangereuses),Marco in The Decline of the American Empire (Le Déclin de l'empire américain), and Caius Marcius in Coriolanus.
