Robert Burton

For only spending just a short time in the entertainment industry, Robert Burton has done his very best to make a rather large splash in it! This charismatic and energetic performer has entertained thousands in theater with such works as "Tony and Tina's Wedding" and the "Murder Mystery America" series. He's also created many memorable film characters like the cold and calculating Russian mobster Shone in the drama "Worst Night Ever", and the inept but still menacing Shane in the comedy "Little Blue Pill". He has also contributed to the Seattle International Film Festival (SIFF) by working gratis to send the world the message about how important it is to believe in yourself, your industry, and a common cause that unites so many others to help open film patron's eyes to new and fresh perspectives. Robert has always had an innate talent for humor and comedic timing. If you couple that with the uncanny ability he has to imitate most accents, voices, and sound effects that he is able to hear, you've got a very funny guy there! Interestingly enough, he is most usually cast as a villain. He's still trying to figure that one out... He was also a soldier for many years (about 9). Robert served in the Marine Corps as a Tactical Data Communications Central Operator. He also served in the Army as a Ranger and further onward in the Special Operations community. This background definitely helped to contribute to Robert's "can-do, and let's do it now" attitude. Never one to settle, Robert always keeps testing himself with more increasingly diverse character roles and immersions as he continues his course.
