Actor
I began acting
in the 1980’s with the Young National Trust Theatre, and
have worked regularly in live theatre ever since,
particularly in roles requiring an actor/musician or
narrator. I have been a company member with The National
Theatre, Festival Theatre Chichester, Theatre-
in-the-Downs, Jake’s Ladder Theatre Company and most
recently Solomon Theatre. I also work as a freelance actor
and perform several small scale touring shows. In addition
to acting and music I am very experienced in writing and
devising for community theatre (see Plays). I also
specialise in the reading of the poetry of William Barnes
and Thomas Hardy.
I have very strong folk singing, concertina playing and
storytelling skills (plus guitar, whistles and melodeon). I
have a natural Dorset accent, and very good Norfolk/Suffolk
and RP.
