About me
Graduated from the 1yr Foundation Acting course at The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in 2013 and from the University of Roehampton in 2017 with a First Class degree in Creative Writing. I have also taken multiple Clown & Comedy classes led by Mick Barnfather, and more recently Jon Davidson. Over the last few years I have also been involved in numerous theatre and improvisation groups, both in London and the West Midlands, including AppleTree theatre.I love different forms of storytelling and character exploration; I'd like to explore them in what I hope to be a long and sustainable career. I also write novels, short fiction, as well as stage and screen plays. My first screenplay, "The Old Man Of The Mountain" is currently in pre-production.
I also regularly contribute creative works to my blog https://jackpurkis.wordpress.com/ and can also be found on Twitter @jpurkis8
Currently a student of The London Meisner Company, led by Robyn Paterson.
