Seeking to become an architect, he attended the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Lyon, but he was expelled from the school.[1] He then attended the Conservatoire à rayonnement régional de Lyon and took drama classes. His first play was directed by Marcel Maréchal, who offered him an understudy role in "Compagnie du Cothurne".[1]

From 1962 to the 1980s, Ballet appeared exclusively in plays directed by Maréchal. He also took part in cinema, appearing in dozens of films.
