At
the tender age of five the innocent, curly haired youth that was Mark Jane,
was bitten by a bug - the theatre bug! From this moment on his destiny was
clear. He spent his adolescent years honing his skills and focussing his talents.
During this voyage he encountered school plays, community plays, charity plays
and a plethora of improvised insanity.
The
elders struggled to keep him within a recognised education system only to discover
that he would find a way of pursing his passion through education. He galloped
through G.C.S.E., Drama, A-Level Theatre Studies and an Honours degree in Film,
Television and Theatre. Finally he appeared, the actor, artistically fine tuned
and ready to tackle any performance art.
Thus
he unleashed himself on the world. Since he has acted on stage and screen throughout
Europe. His roles have varied from Shakespearean tragedy to contemporary comedy,
Oscar Wilde to Emile Zola. Not content with acting Mark has also directed a
number of shows. His latest outing as director was his extremely well received
interpretation of "The Comedy of Errors" in Paris recently.
What's
next? Maybe Mark will be part of your next adventure? If you are in need
