Notes
Originally from the Goulburn Valley region, Hamish has always had a passion of the performing arts industry after discovering it through his love of film and music. During his time at Federation University Arts Academy Ballarat, Hamish has appeared in numerous productions, most recently playing the role of Posthumus Leonatus in William Shakespeare's Cymbeline, directed by Kim Durban. Other credits include The Caucasian Chalk Circle (Governor/Azdak) by Bertolt Brecht, directed by James Wardlaw, The Spirit Level (William Banks) with music by Rick Chew, and libretto by Rufus Norris. As well as a self-devised show called After Joan directed by Angela Campbell, written by Emma Hall and the rest of his cohort.
