About me
I love playing characters that stand on the fringes of society in some or other way. I also have a keen love of comedy - both watching and performing - screen-wise I love Woody Allen, theatre-wise - Berkoff. I love physical theatre when it is done well and have written a couple of plays in the Berkoffian style (one of which i have staged 4 times and which has received several very positive reviews).Acting experience:
Have done various different fringe plays at theatres such as the Riverside Studios, The Assembly Rooms (Edinburgh Fringe Festival), Battersea Arts Centre and the Etcetera Theatre. Have done a handful of short films.
Have staged and been in my own play; 'Broken' at 4 different venues, where it has received 3,4 and 5 star reviews.
Dancing experience:
I have just realised at the age of 40 that I wish I had been a dancer instead of an actor. Oh well.
Singing experience:
In the bath. But i had to stop because my rubber duck kept trying to drown himself as a result.
Modelling experience:
n/a
Television experience:
none
Specific skills:
Pretending i'm doing something incredibly important on my phone when i dont want to talk to anyone.
Chocolate consumption.
I'm rather good with the written word I've been told...
Additional skills:
writing, drawing.
Interesting past experiences:
In all of my past lives i was a moderately more successful actor than in this one.
Additional information:
I previously trained in Acting, Speech and Movement at The Questors Theatre in Ealing Broadway where i received a certificate from Kingston College on completing course.
