My name is Alex Marlow. I'm an actor and performer primarily, who also writes and directs original and scripted work.
I'm from Rossendale in East Lancashire. I graduated with a First Class Honours in English Literature from Lancaster University in August 2014, and now live in London.
I have also worked as a producer and designer, as well as teaching, tutoring, and facilitating and running workshops.
