Performer

My first acting role, in 1969, at the age of 6, was as Jesus, in a Nativity play produced for the Cubs by students at Rose Bruford College of Dramatic Art, and performed in a bower outside Chislehurst parish church. The annual ritual continues there, to this day.

Between 1969 and 1994 I performed in at least one production every year (except 1986 and 87).

My interests as a performer ranged from an early Shakespearean weightiness, through the deliberate gestural language of Gothic melodrama, to the physical theatre choreographies of the modern avant garde.
