Charles will be joining Stark Film’s Binnelanders on MNET as Leonard van Heerden, the corrupt Talent Agent.
Charles started his performance journey at an early age. With his father and grandfather being classical musicians it came as no surprise when he started with violin and music theory at the age of four, (much to the disgust of the neighbours) and later discovering and carving out a niche for himself as an actor. While growing up Charles was very active in dramatic societies with performances ranging from Shakespeare, to Alan Ayckbourn, to five Gilbert & Sullivan operettas, to Grease-the musical. After school Charles studied Drama at the University of Pretoria, and also holds a teacher's diploma in Latin American and Ballroom dance, and a certificate in Stage Combat. Charles’ T.V. experience includes roles in Scandal, Jozi Streets, projects for the 46664 Foundation, Egoli and various adverts. Some of his theatre credits include: Fame - the musical, Janice Honeyman's Cinderella Pantomime, Ladies Night, Antony & Cleopatra, Now That's Tap, Thoroughly Modern Millie, and Buddy, the Buddy Holly Story, The King & I, Houtkruis-Die Musical and also played the psychotic role of Dr. Frank-n-Furter in The Rocky Horror Show. |
