Welcome!

 Hi, and welcome to yet another blog from me!

This is my blog dedicated to my work in voiceover, theatre and performance. While I've been active professionally in the former since 2016, I'm still moving towards becoming a pro in theatre and film - despite studying it at university a VERY long time ago.

In Fair Corona: 20 Days till curtain

Not as close to the wire as bloody Mother Courage, but close nevertheless.  Currently, we're down an SM (she has the 'rona) and a Prince (She may also have the lurgy, but is self-isolating in Mantua to be on the safe side), and we're still rehearsing in the car park at Progress.

Now, while it's good practice for an open air production, it's not very good for ensemble work, as we've been working in Covid secure groups (i.e. limiting numbers to batches of 6 at first and then slowly building up as the rules all

Let me tell you a story...

 SO, perhaps you're wondering how and why I got into doing voiceovers and performance in the first place. Or maybe I just feel the need to confess my sins or something. Anyway, it goes like this... I studied Drama and English Literature at Bangor University back in the 80s - well, to be honest, I probably studied the insides of bars, parties and the ceilings of other people's bedrooms a little more than I did my academic work, but still - in 1989, I left university, proudly clutching my BA (Joint Hons). And that's where everything, as they say,..crashed to a standstill. I didn't actually know what I was doing with my life, what I wanted to do (or could afford to do), where I was going - nothing. And nowhere and nothing was my precise destination for quite some time, until, that is, I saw a fateful advert in a newspaper that propelled me into the glamorous world of TEFL. And it was through that that I got my first experience of VO. Picture me, then, in a recording studio
