Neil Bromley

Officer O’Hara

Neil’s first job, after graduating from the Rose Bruford School of Speech & Drama in 1993, was here at The Vienna English Theatre in Bernard Shaw’s Misalliance, and he’s delighted to be back.

An experienced character actor Neil has enjoyed a varied career, from the award winning short film comedy Father’s Day, to Face to Face, a play he co-wrote about restorative justice, which toured prisons & young offenders institutes in the UK (Theatre AdAd).

As a stand up comedian Neil has toured comedy clubs and universities all over the UK and appeared on BBC One’s Stand Up Show and Channel Five’s Comedy Network.

As a writer, Neil has co-written a black comedy for BBC Radio 4, A Pig Too Far and a sit-com pilot for Channel Four, Turn the World Down.

Often cast as the put-upon everyman in commercials, Neil has advertised Chewing Gum in the USA, Salmon in France, fizzy water in Eire and cheesy biscuits in Germany.

He spent this summer playing his hero, Stan Laurel, in Chalkfoot Theatre’s critically acclaimed Laurel & Hardy at the Jermyn Street theatre, Piccadilly.
