Matilda McNair

After studying Acting at the Brit School for Performing Arts and Technology for 2 years, I've acted in a number of short films, and a feature, and a variety of plays. Over the years I've played a wide range of characters, including male roles such as King Lear - it is always a joy to work with different people, and exciting to study and develop a character.
