From childhood, Michel Caron wanted to become an actor. He entered the René Simon class, then the Conservatoire de Paris where he won three first prizes: opera, comic opera and operetta.

He was then at the top of the bill for two plays of opéra-bouffe, performed in 1968, La Périchole with Jean Le Poulain and Roger Carel and Barbe Bleue with Jean Le Poulain and Arlette Didier.
