Chris Murrell


A versatile actor and performer with significant stage and varied screen/studio experience. Having started my performing career as a street dancer, I soon found my voice, as it was, and toured over a number of years as a frontman with cabaret acts before successfully auditioning for the West End musical 'Dancing In The Streets' eventually securing the role of Stevie Wonder. I then went on to play principal roles in Five Guys Named Moe, The Harder They Come and a production of Aladdin.

Off the stage I have done studio work as a fitness/dance presenter and have also been approached and employed as a 'recurring' actor by the NFTS.
My outside interests are again quite varied, running the spectrum from being an avid sports fan having competed internationally in 2 disciplines and being a qualified fitness instructor, to an eternal student of the 'ologies' of the mind (psychology and sociology).

Having trained at the City Lit Institute in Drama with further study in Meisner with renowned teacher Scott Williams I am keen to further diversity and extend myself artistically. I consider myself to be a well-round, passionate and intelligent actor with a true sense of professionalism and commitment.
