Jefferson's Profile
Experience Summary
I am an Olivier nominated actor and writer, who basically needs to find some regular promo work to top up my income. I have written and starred in 3 hugely successful full length stage shows, as well as being the most regular presenter in the BBC's CBBC office in 2008-2009. I have done quite a few promo jobs in the past, but of more recent times it has been self-promotion (flyering/getting interest in the street for shows and events).
Interests include: Technology/games, food, comedy, booze, health, racquet sports, football, unusual sports (dodgeball, ultimate frisbee etc.) & walking. View
