Mark Iles: I am a professional musical theatre performer. My credits include Angel in Rent; Molina in Kiss of the Spider Woman; Ensemble, cover Goran in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang; and The Diction Teacher, cover Cosmo in Singin' in the Rain. Theatre captured my imagination as a child leading me to perform in Oliver! at the London Palladium at just 13. My love grew so I became a member of the OYMT, the NYMT and the Central School of Ballet. I found that the art of playing, exploring and finally creating something that transported the audience and ultimately impacted their lives was incomparable. I trained at Arts Ed London, graduating in 2003 with a National Diploma in Professional Dance (Musical Theatre). It is due to the strength and diversity of this course and its teachers that I have survived in such a precarious profession. I intend to continue performing but ideally in less dance based, more character driven shows. I also want to teach on a vocational course bringing my up-to-date knowledge of the profession to my students. I currently teach beginners ballet for adults and hope to expand this. My BA (Hons) Professional Practice will give me the tools I need to achieve my career goals.
