It's been delightful bringing life to the charming Marcy and working with such wonderful people on Dogfight.

Kit hopes you enjoy the show-I'll even offer not to wear my teeth.

This is Franks first foray into musical theatre and for that reason he hopes youll be kind!

A born and raised Canberran Frank is the youngest of a large family who inherited his love of performing from his Nonno, who was a professional Opera singer.  

Frank caught the theatre bug after appearing as Tybalt in Canberra Repertory Societys Romeo and Juliet. He is hoping that experience will help inform his Dogfight character; another self-assured jerk with a tragic end.

A self-confessed drama nerd Frank was the Performing arts captain at his high school, before going on to study Shakespeare as part of his Arts degree at the Australian National University.

Post University Frank lived in New York where he would catch a Broadway show at any available opportunity.

Performing in Dogfight with a buzzcut will be as close as Frank gets to joining the army.
