About Me
A highly experienced actor and voice artist, Richard is currently working on several audiobook projects and returns to the stage in Stourbridge this Halloween with a chilling ghost story reading, which he will also perform at two National Trust properties in Worcester and Birmingham for NeuNoir Theatre Company. Last year he reprised his role as Peter Sellers for Birmingham Comedy Festival in two stage productions of 'The Goon Show!' in Dudley and at the Symphony Hall in Birmingham.
Richard has previously stepped into the shoes of his hero Peter Sellers for two tours of 'The Goon Show!' (FRED Theatre and Birmingham Comedy Festival) and the 2017 world premiere of Larry Stephens’ 'Vacant Lot', a long-lost sitcom created for Tony Hancock.
And on film, in 2016 he appeared as assassin’s handler Charlie in the award-winning short film 'Dead Meet'.
