This is Andrew’s first role for Vienna’s English Theatre.

After a career selling TV programmes around the world Andrew trained as an actor at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. He left to a baptism of fire to do a weekly rep. season in Devon, doing 12 plays in 14 weeks. Since then he completed a year at the Royal Shakespeare Company, toured Germany and Eastern Europe as Lord Henry in ADG’s The Picture of Dorian Gray and played the Pilot in The Little Prince. Other theatre credits include Scrooge in A Christmas Carol (Trafalgar Studios, London), Squire Squidgely in Mother Goose (Exeter), Twelfth Night, The Taming of the Shrew, King Lear (Creation, Oxford), Macbeth (UK and European Tour), rogue peer Jeffrey Archer in Jeffrey Archer’s Prison Diaries (Edinburgh Fringe), Treasure Island and Killer Joe (Bristol), and The Lady’s Not For Burning and Out of Bounds (Finborough Theatre, London).

Andrew’s TV credits include Torchwood, Poirot, Eastenders, Whistleblower, Post Code, Mrs.David, and Keith Lemon’s Fit.

He is currently learning both to play the piano and ride a unicycle and is delighted to be in Vienna and able to take a rest from both.
