Michael Fenemore-Cocks

40 from Victoria, Australia
Actor
I am deeply passionate about acting and am interested in working with talented, ambitious people in an effort to produce quality work of a high standard. I am professional, a team player who works hard and is respectful of everyone's craft. I do feel that acting can shift or expand people's thinking. That's what life is all about, the expansion of thought. Otherwise you're just trudging along, waiting for life to play out and not actively pursuing one's ambitions. I love performance of all genres and disciplines and I look forward to being involved with your team and future productions.

AWARDS
2010 Her Majesty's Theatre Ballarat One Act Play Festival - Actor with the Most Potential

REVIEWS
The play is an incredible challenge for any actor, and the production provided a great showcase for four emerging artists. The standout performance was from Michael Fenemore-Cocks, who willingly embraced the true nature of Larry. He managed to make the audience feel comfortably uncomfortable spanning the range of Larry’s emotions, from his light-hearted witty banter through to his violent aggression.

Reviewer: Catherine Brain

For a relatively inexperienced performer, Michael Fenemore-Cocks’ portrayal of Larry was exact, providing the comedic relief for the evening with his quirky arrogance. But it was his ability to develop a relationship with the audience through adopting true dimension and attention to detail, which left a lasting impression.

Reviewer: Rochelle Cogdon

He is a wholesaler or perhaps retailer of white goods, possibly living a little out of his league. Michael Fenemore convincingly renders this un-likable man, capable of treating his daughter’s hamster with cruel disdain, as a younger husband.
