Nicholas
Warren-Gray
Nicholas Warren-Gray has been performing for sixteen years, the last ten in New York; progressing in stages from mime, to spoken word, contemporary and classical theater and now into film, as well. He is an avid character actor who excels at moulding and shaping new roles into vibrant studies of human life in both inspiration and decay. Whether boasting wide jests or wheting the curve of life's fickle blade, Nicholas is most vibrantly at home in the skin of those who see and live the ever-crossing lines of necessary comedy and inescapable tragedy. He will continue to pursue the ensnarement of life and fetter it to the visions of audiences for their enjoyment and enlightenment for as long as life continues to feed itself into his grasp.
