Sevinç Erbulak — Biography

Sevinç Erbulak is an actress, author and acting teacher whose roots lie in theater and television. She grew up in the arts as the daughter of the stage actors Altan Erbulak and Füsun Erbulak; on stage she moved from the Istanbul City Theatres to private companies, and on screen she has been a familiar face in series since the 1990s. She is also known today for teaching acting.

After studying classical ballet at the Istanbul University State Conservatory she completed the theater department of the Müjdat Gezen Art Center, where she later taught for a time. From the second half of the 1990s she played with the Hadi Çaman Theatre, the Levent Kırca-Oya Başar Theatre and the Istanbul City Theatres. She faced the camera first as Zeynep in Süper Baba, followed by Baba Evi (Bilge), Ağaçlar Ayakta Ölür (Ayşe), Kuzenlerim (Ece), Çemberimde Gül Oya, Son Bahar (Ruhsar) and Bebek İşi. In cinema she played Seçil in Prensesin Uykusu; she was Betül Sarıhan in No:309 and has recently appeared in Senden Daha Güzel and Hide Me. In 2013 she acted in the play Gezerken, staged during the Gezi Park protests.

Her book Gözünü Kırpma, Düşerim was published in 2002. She teaches acting at Erbulak Evi, founded in 2014 with her sister Ayşe Erbulak, Dağhan Külegeç and Özden Özgürdal, and has served on the jury of the 17th Afife Theatre Awards.

Their work through different eyes

Family Viewer Asks whether the whole household can watch it; cares about humor and heart.

For watching Sevinç Erbulak together, Baba Evi and Süper Baba suit: one is a large family drama, the other follows a divorced father of three. Prensesin Uykusu is a fairy-tale film, fine with younger children though the girl's long sleep may weigh on them. Reha Erdem's Beş Vakit is better kept for grown-ups.

Cinephile Looks at script, editing and directing choices; keeps a distance from formula films.

What stands out in Sevinç Erbulak's filmography is that she worked with Çağan Irmak twice: the series Çemberimde Gül Oya and the film Prensesin Uykusu, where she plays Seçil. In Beş Vakit she is Yakup's mother inside Reha Erdem's child-centred film, a very different film language. In my view this supporting work, able to hold both ends, is the least discussed side of Erbulak's career.

Series Binger A series devotee tracking character arcs, cast chemistry and season pacing.

Sevinç Erbulak's screen work stretches over three decades, from Süper Baba to Sakla Beni. In Baba Evi, Bilge is one side of the father-child clash at the story's core. In romantic comedies such as No: 309, Demet Özdemir and Furkan Palalı share the lead and Erbulak's Betül Sarıhan moves around them. For a series viewer, Bilge in Baba Evi is therefore the more interesting place to look.
