Jason Denton
I’m an award-winning British theatre actor now based in New York and a member of AEA, with professional experience across West end, Off-Broadway, UK and U.S. national tours, and commercial campaigns for major brands. With a strong theatre foundation, I’m now expanding into film, with my most recent short selected for two New York film festivals. I'm drawn to character-driven storytelling and bring a grounded, truthful approach to every role and a growing on-camera presence as I build my screen career. Links below to my Actors Access and Spotlight and further down you can see me in action in a selection of short clips.
