 I AM AN ACTOR  BY THE WAY


​                                                              I AM AN ACTOR BY THE WAY!!



Now to clear something up with those out there who have little or not a clue about what the deification an Actor truly is!

'Someone who pretends to be someone else while performing in a film, play, or television or radio programme'
I think I fit this above statement.
I briefly trained with Anna Scher in the 70's. Trained with Graham Dixon at the Michael Chekhov studio in 2013.
Was supported by Sir Nigel Hawthorne when I joined BRITISH ACTORS EQUITY IN THE EARLY 1980'S
Have been a supporting Artist in the past on Film, video and TV. Many of these films most are aware of.
During my 30 years plus also appeared in the West End on stage,had Equity contracts on The Bill ( which I worked on for 5 years). I have had over 15 Acting contracts over the many years.
Appeared live on The Six O'Clock show as STAN LAUREL with 6 million viewers too!
And have appeared and Commercial,pop videos,BBC Panorama documentaries. Took sometime off due to family matters but made a small budget film last year which was release on DVD and is now on Youtube!
So those who see fit to belittle me and use stupid examples of what, where and when one is an Actor , I say GO SUCK AN EGG!!
No one is better than anyone else in this world.
The best actors like Anthony Hopkins, Jack Nicholson and Robert Mitchum all of whom I met worked with, never disrespected anyone they worked alongside.
