This is a wonderful opportunity to study at a globally revered University and to further my academic trajectory in a subject for which I have so much passion.
Misanthropos Update
Proud to share the pre-production website for the film I'm currently working on, 'Misanthropsos' based on Shakespeare's Timon of Athens.
Principal photography begins this autumn in Portugal and we are all very excited about the next stage of the journey.
As a large ensemble cast it’s been a unique experience coming together to bring Maximianno’s vision to life, and being Shakespeare, not without it’s challenges!
I’m lucky to share the journey with truly gifted actors & a director with great generosity of spirit 🙏🏻🎥✨
There’s lots about the project & even an interview with me on how I felt coming back to Shakespeare again after a hiatus.

Narrating the Whale Bowl documentary
The Whale Bowl is an award winning documentary I narrated and which has gone on to win critical acclaim internationally. I was honoured to be a part of this project, which highlights the desperate plight of captive cetaceans the world over.
The Whale Bowl is a short documentary that follows the heart felt plight of Lolita, the world's loneliest orca. Through a combination of animation, archive and live footage, the documentary explores Lolita's history and the people fighting to set her free.
