About me
I have performed in over 60 theatrical productions, including a number of professional theatrical roles: 'Snatched From Home' (GM Fringe Festival), 'The Seance' (GM Comedy Festival) and 'The Importance of Being Earnest', 'Twelfth Night', 'All That Glitters' and 'Dangerous Sequins of Events' with Bravo Theatre Company, which I am also the director of. Please see www.bravotc.uk for more details.I took professional acting classes with Actor Tribe under the tutelage of well known actress Sally Carman for a year.
I am the longest serving box office volunteer at Wigan Little Theatre, having been involved there for 19 years.
I have over 12 years experience as a supporting artiste in film, TV and commercial work and I am looking to advance into more featured and speaking roles in the future.
I am a reliable person and am very comfortable with taking direction. I am usually available at quite short notice and have my own transport.
