OM DENNE EPISODE
On this episode of Do It Again But Better, Jess chats to actor, voice artist, dragon rider, spider whisperer, and everyone's favourite Slytherin, Louis Corbett. Louis had some amazing stories and advice to share from his decades-long acting career as he tells Jess about his years spent on The Cursed Child, as well as the gig where he ate his weight in lollies, the unlikely role that he got recognised for in public, and the time that he tried to rock a Missy Higgins song for an audition and failed spectacularly.
Louis has been working as an actor since the age of six years old. His Australian TV credits include: 'Blue Heelers' (Southern Star); 'Stingers' (BSLM); 'We Can Be Heroes' (ABC); the ABC comedy 'It's A Date'; playing the Young Graham Kennedy in 'The King' (Dir: Matthew Saville/Grundy) and 'Tangle' (Southern Star) amongst others. Most recently, he appeared in recurring roles on both Wentworth (Foxtel) and Romper Stomper (Stan). Louis’ feature film credits include 'Macbeth' (Dir: Geoffrey Wright), Paramount’s 'Charlotte’s Web', where he played Avery opposite Dakota Fanning and the lead role in 'The Dragon Pearl' opposite Sam Neill. U.S. TV credits include 'Deceit' (Lifetime TV) and 'Nightmares and Dreamscapes: Umney’s Last Case' (Coote/ Hayes). Louis has also appeared in the short film series 'Tiny Town', directed by Tim Dean. Louis has performed for many years in Melbourne's independent theatre scene and has also worked with the Melbourne Theatre Company in 'All My Sons' and the Tim Winton play 'Rising Water'. Most recently, Louis performed as an on-stage swing in the original cast of 'Harry Potter and The Cursed Child' (Michael Cassel Group).
