He fought who he was taught to fight. That is, until one night, A Night In November, when he did the most exciting,outrageous, crazy, mad thing he’d ever done.

Matthew is a versatile actor, working throughout the UK and Ireland in both theatre and television.

Originally a joiner by trade, he finally followed his aspirations and trained at Drama Studio London, receiving a DaDA Award to support his studies.

Matthew is also a talented singer and shares the stage with his wife Michelle in their 1950s Rock ‘n’ Roll band, The Soda Popz.
