Biography

BOVTS: Richard/Rebel 2/Murderer in Henry VI: Days of Rebellion, M in Lungs, Konstantin in The Seagull, Cassius in Julius Ceaser. Pre-BOVTS: George in of Mice and Men (Ad Astra), DJ Dewer Phillips in Elvis (Bazmark Films), Puck in A Midsummer Night’s Dream (Brisbane Shakespeare Festival), Oswald in Ghosts (The Curators), Max Zoric in Harrow (ABC Studios International). Training: Advanced Diploma in Acting for Screen and Stage (Australian Performing Arts Conservatory).

One of my favourite parts about BOVTS is that it feels ‘homegrown’. From the set to the costume, lighting, acting and sound, every single aspect of a theatre production or film is down to the students. The location of Clifton is so serene and the School being so small everyone knows each other and it feels so personal and special. Violet Morris, BA Professional Acting Student
