About me
I am a Canadian actor who studied theatre in Europe. I speak fluent French and English. I excel in the dark comedy style. My favorite playwrights are Martin Mcdonagh and Tennesse Williams. My strongest castings have been as gamblers, drifters, jokers, strict fathers, bad guys and goons. My most notable performances have been Randle McMurphey, Eddie Carbone and Jack Torrance. I am artistic director of Hippana Theatre, an international touring company.Additional skills:
