Gavin Stenhouse at Hollyshorts Film Festival 2025, for the film Key of Genius

I'm a Guildhall School of Music and Drama graduate with 18 years of professional acting experience, including roles in 9-1-1, Kung Fu, Allegiance, and the Emmy-winning Black Mirror episode "San Junipero."

Drama made all the difference for me. When I was being bullied in my tween years, theatre became my safe space — where I found confidence, community, and essential life skills that shaped my career and life.

I believe drama education develops collaboration, confidence, empathy, and leadership — qualities that help young people thrive in every aspect of life, not just the arts.
