Just got new headshots and i gotta say they are amazing. I had the pleasure of meeting with photographer Tim Leyes between running back and forth from Toronto and Ottawa filming my new projects. Understanding the difficulties of an actor’s schedule, Tim did all he could to accommodate the little time i had in the city. Tim has been Harry Potter with the cam for more than 20 years shooting portraits, editorials, headshots, magazine covers etc. His pre-shoot coffee meets help to establish a rapport and comfortability between both the subject and himself, and also allows him to get a feel of the creative vision you will be looking to attain together. Actors and creatives alike, do yourself a favour, put your best foot forward. Get yourself shots that express who you are, while allowing the possibility of what you can became. Visit the headshot tab on my page and see the rest of my great photos with Tim.

Stay Healthy - What a time to be alive!! Hey guys! I hope you are all keeping well. This is such a strange time we are living in and attempting to navigate. Some of us are trapped, away from home and our families in other countries as borders are being closed. Some of us have lost our jobs and are at home wondering when things will get back to normal. Some of us are scared. The streets are empty, we are all self isolating gas prices are low. What is happening? It’s okay to feel scared and be frustrated. We are all going through this together. In the old world, I was suppose to be in rehearsal for “Revolt” over at Buddies in Bad Times. We are postponed until further notice. Everything and everyone is being affected. It is important that we support each other, respect each other and not let chaos lead us to do anything crazy. When this is all over, things will not be the same. The world we knew will not be the same but that doesn’t need to be a bad thing. If we band together as a community we will all prevail. Be patient, be respectful and let’s play this out to the end. Take this time to enjoy meditation, self isolation, and the slower pace of our city. Send all y’all sweetness and love. - Dramabwoy https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2020/1/3/nm6e52igv9va0xvlry2738ew4mzguc monthly 0.5 2020-01-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1578109541970-VUVS691Q24NJCX45EZJ1/54728419_2199731956740784_2132106441014640640_o.jpg News - Looks like we are headed to Kamloops https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2020/1/3/happy-new-years-from-me-to-you monthly 0.5 2020-01-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1578110213919-X3Z3P9OOZ6E160C1BYTM/8x10_300dpi_Headshot-4.jpg News - Happy New Years from ME to YOU https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2019/11/30/139ego1m95ripp4u21aiqs4pegq7x8 monthly 0.5 2019-12-02 https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2019/11/30/u820wv27x9txfxplfgo7sbconli2rs monthly 0.5 2019-12-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1575096572556-0YMBFTWUW06E3SU8VVND/IMG_3913.jpeg News - Copy That “So what people watch on TV, it’s got nothing to do with the real world?” Renowned playwright Jason Sherman’s caustic look at the entertainment industry, Copy That takes us behind the scenes of network television. Four writers struggle to get their new cop show approved for production. When the team’s only Black writer is roughed up by an actual cop, the fallout threatens to not only kill the show, but expose the systemic racism at the heart of popular entertainment itself. From the author of last season’s moving account of the life of Marshall McLuhan (The Message). CAST written by Jason Sherman directed by Jamie Robinson Starring Emma Ferreira, Janet-Laine Green, Jeff Lillico, Tony Ofori & Richard Waugh https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2019/10/16/game-time-episode-2-porn-star monthly 0.5 2019-10-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1571277839118-407OQC1MRNUSKDS2QXD6/IMG_3434%2B2.jpg News - Game Time Episode 2: Porn Star https://www.tonyofori.com/news/newepisodeofgametime monthly 0.5 2019-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1570591227567-M0Z7VKGYALYLJ0D26P0M/IMG_3353.JPG News - Game Time Episode 1 https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2019/10/4/game-time monthly 0.5 2019-10-09 https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2019/10/4/when-morning-comes monthly 0.5 2019-10-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1570161648402-BWLCEQMCRP279BPQ4YLL/IMG_3296.PNG News - When Morning Comes https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2019/10/3/critics-had-nothing-but-good-things-to-say-about-obsidians-actually monthly 0.5 2019-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1570160350566-53XPG4SAP4S9CDMUUTIO/IMG_3242.JPG News - Critics had nothing but good things to say about Obsidian's ACTUALLY - Articles Click and check out the reviews Globe and Mail The star Mooney on Theatre https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2019/9/10/actually monthly 0.5 2019-09-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1568167091206-T4620Z40Y697KXMZGAJB/IMG_3006.jpg News - Actually https://www.tonyofori.com/news/2019/6/10/dreams-screening-at-fox-theatre monthly 0.5 2019-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c1c50f4266c0785f7577238/1560180988625-1I56TK9SMHUQPSE3MQLG/Dreams News - "Dreams" Screening At Fox Theatre!

All is going well until his parents, the King and Queen of Exeter, show up in New York with a princess they hope Colin will marry, ruining Colin’s cover story. I play Eddie Jones, who is the pastry chef at one of Manhattan’s most prestigious bakeries and also Dee Dee’s Cousins fiance. What I like most about this character is that Eddie has a bit of a comedic edge. For someone that is pretty comedic in my personal life, I don’t ever really get the chance to play comedic characters, so you can imagine what a treat this was for me. If you haven’t seen The Royal Queens Christmas yet, you can stream it online or catch in again on your screen this Christmas!
