About:
|
Coming back into the business after being dragged away to do other things. I was thrilled to be chosen from thousands to win the BBC Talent scheme for actors in 2003 and to be rewarded with a part in Canterbury Tales, The Pardoner's Tale.
I have great experience in all areas of performance including TV, the London stage, film and radio and am looking to build on that in the future. I love working hard to achieve the utmost from every performance.
I have just had the tremendous pleasure of working with Striped Socks Productions playing the lead role of Harold in their new feature film Wednesday. A HUGE thank you to all involved. :-) I have also had the great pleasure of playing Barry in The Reappearance of Christ in the East End by Peter Hamilton at the White Bear in Kennington to critical acclaim (see website Reviews). Once again a very big thank you to all involved.
I am now (Sep 07) enjoying playing Lord Richard Croft (8th Earl of Abbingdon and Lara Croft's father) in the new film Tomb Raider Ascension. The trailer was posted on the movie's website on 9 Oct 07, www.tombraiderascension.com Go there to see the trailer and, after 13 Nov 07 (date of premiere), to see the movie itself.
