Brendan is a country boy and spent a fair bit of his life traveling and throwing his hand in for a variety of jobs which included shot firing, bar work, a fire fighter with the department of natural resources and a completed apprenticeship in carpentry. His first audition was in grade 3 at Broome District High School as Joe Dolce miming “Shuddap ya Face”, but after leaving high school Brendan had to earn a living, so acting took a back seat. As time moved on he wanted back into the acting so Brendan took himself off to train with Howard Fine in LA. While here in Perth he has taken many PAC Screen Workshops, has done voice training with James Hagan and a Master Class in Improv with Damon Lockwood. Brendan has appeared in many TVC’s, short films, TV Series, plays and readings. He recently won the ‘Stanislavski Award for Consistent Excellence’. less
