Jason Heppenstall

He trained at the Guildford School of Acting where he played various roles such as Jesus in 'Godspell', Gabrielle in 'Kiss of the Spider Woman' and Rusty Charlie in 'Guys and Dolls' at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre in Guildford. Professional credits include 'The Hiss and Boo Variety Show' with Danny La Rue and gala performances of 'Sondheim Tonight' at the Barbican Theatre and 'Anyone can Whistle' at the Savoy Theatre. Jason has spent the last two Christmas's in Belfast, firstly to play Prince Di Capital in 'Sleeping Beauty' at the Civic Arts Theatre and then to play Hansel in 'Hansel and Gretel' at the Lyric Theatre. Jason made his film debut in 1999 playing David in 'Mum, it's about David' and earlier this year (2000) was the lead in BBC Crimewatch UK (1984) in the Bognor Regis segments. He also had a brief appearance in the first episode of The Last Detective (2003) but his acting career seems to be pushed aside now as he teaches performing arts at Northbrook College.
