Nicholas Gauci

Nicholas is a London-based actor, storyteller and accent coach, originally from the Mediterranean island of Malta. He's always loved bringing stories to life through the art of narration and performance. When he was a child, he would animate the soft toys he had lying around their bedroom, entertaining his younger brother with ongoing drama and improvised scenes with his cast of characters. Fast forward to his mid twenties, a few years after graduating with a science degree from the University of Malta, Nicholas decided to move to London in 2008 to pursue acting training. His bold (if not foolish!) complete career change was thankfully followed by some great roles in theatre in London, Oxford and Manchester, as well as a UK tour of a Bollywood reinterpretation of Shakespeare's "Cymbeline". Because of his background, Nicholas has been cast in some interesting Middle Eastern roles, including the Iranian TV icon of the 70s, Ferreydoun Farrokhzad, the Persian version of Freddie Mercury, and who's sister is the poet, Forough Farrokhzad. A few years into working as an actor, Nicholas had a chance encounter with a fully fledged voice over artist, who's "office" was his bedroom. It was then that Nicholas was inspired to set up his own home studio and expand his skills set as a voice artist. Within less than a year of doing so, he was fortunate enough to be chosen as the narrator of a nature documentary, produced by Blink Films UK, and broadcast in Canada (Love Nature) and the US (Smithsonian Earth). Episode 1 of the series, has been viewed more than 1.3 million times. A number of Nicholas' followers have described him as the next "David Attenborough". When not working as an actor, Nicholas helps non-native speakers soften their accent in English, thereby boosting their awareness, confidence and overall potential when living and working in an English speaking environment. In his free time, he's a gym goer, avid swimmer and supporter of the intermittent fasting movement.
