Born in Toulon (Var), Julien joined the troupe of the Copiaus founded by Jacques Copeau in the 1920s and which became the Compagnie des Quinze (1930-1932) in 1929 when it was installed at the Théâtre du Vieux-Colombier in Paris. It is within this group that he met a Swiss actor, singer and composer Jean Villard, known as Gilles, with whom he created a vocal duo from 1932 to 1939, under the name "Gilles and Julien", which met with great success.
