About Me

Mini Biography
British actor James Morgan grew up in the town of Maesteg in the Llynfi valley in South Wales. With his natural aptitude for making people laugh he has been described as a "born entertainer" and from a young age he channeled this into theatre, which helped focus his boundless energy and enthusiasm.

With thirteen years of acting experience behind him he is becoming a veteran of the South Wales stage. Years of treading the boards in his hometown resulted in his first lead role as Billy Crocker in "Anything Goes", and since then he has continued to enjoy prominent casting. He continued this trend in his transition from stage to screen, taking the lead roles in the short films Covered and The Things Unsaid (the former winning him the Best Actor award at the 2004 It's My Shout Awards, and the latter earning him his accreditation by the 59th Festival de Cannes in 2006)

A versatile actor, James' wide range of performances has raised comparisons with namesakes James Cagney and Jim Carrey. Highlights of his career to date have included stepping into Donald O'Connor's tap shoes for the role of Cosmo Brown in "Singin' In The Rain", and joining the prestigious Swansea Little Theatre to play the role of George in Steinbeck's Of "Mice and Men". His work with the company, which once counted Dylan Thomas among its members, gained plaudits and news coverage that reached as far as New York in the summer of 2008 giving him cause to think about taking his career across the Atlantic.
