ADNAN UMER
Untitled
I'm Adnan - and I'm an actor. During the day I am a banker, and at night I study the craft of acting. Inspired by plays of Chekov, William Shakespeare and Edward Albee, I am progressing towards my goal of acting professionally. I love the theatre and take the opportunity to perform onstage whenever I can. I acquired my certificate in Theatrical Performance from Seneca College last fall, and have also received some training for on-camera acting technique. A workshop about the Eric Morris System at The Bova Studio in New York City helped me understand the art of preparing for performance, and taught me to look at the "method" from another angle.

THET WIN
Rescue
Thet began his acting training in Seneca College's Theatrical Performance Program two years ago. A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer is important to him not only because it was first show as an actor (Canadian Premiere for V-Day Toronto, March 2008), but also because of the significance of its message and the importance of raising awareness.
