Tom Curwen

Tom Curwen is an actor from Liverpool, England. Born in London, he moved to Liverpool at a young age. At 8 years of age, a shy Tom joined the Black Box Theatre Company. During his time there he took part in 3 stage plays, 2 in the Unity Theatre and one in the (then) Neptune Theatre (now the Epstein) gaining some important roles for his age and experience. His time at Black Box ended with him being awarded the 'Most Developed Person' award due to his change from a shy 8 year old to a now much more confident 11 year old. In 2003, he started high school, and from his 3rd year began gaining recognition for his acting abilities. He was well known for his A Level performance as Algernon Moncrieff in 'The Importance of Being Earnest' by Oscar Wilde. In 2010, Tom joined Liverpool Media Academy, a growing college in Liverpool for actors, film-makers and musicians. It was here that he met many aspiring directors and producers, and was very often cast in college projects and short films. Tom gained a love for film acting, and in 2013 he decided to get an agent, as he was now actively seeking acting work. Between 2011 and 2013, he also appeared in several stage productions, returning to the Epstein Theatre with 'Alice' where he played The Caterpillar and gained a good review from critics. He also took on the role of Ringo Starr, in the Ticket to Write festival, a Beatles festival at the Unity Theatre in Liverpool. In 2016, Tom auditioned for and received a part in 'More Scouse, Saddam?', a play based on the true story of a group of painters and decorators that travelled to Baghdad to paint Saddam Hussein''s palace, and how they went on to build a nightclub when the Gulf War broke out. 2016 also saw the creation of 'Bottom Deck Productions', a short film company set up between Tom and a filmmaker he met in college. Their debut film 'To Whom It May Concern' is in post-production.
