Hello!

​

My name is Aidan and I am an actor currently on the road playing Scorpius Malfoy in the National Tour of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. I was chosen to be the first actor, in collaboration with director John Tiffany, to figure out and take on this new version of the character (a version that is now being played all over the world). This has been the greatest honor of my life thus far and continues to boggle my mind as to how well it is being received.

 

I recently graduated with a BFA in Acting from Boston University, which is considered one of the top acting programs in the country. While there I was able to cultivate a versatility and reliability on both stage and screen through my concentration in Shakespeare, my diverse array of projects from contemporary text to musical theatre, as well as my experience with Art House, the sitcom pilot developed and filmed in-house my senior year. I have also been fortunate enough to study in Europe at both the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and Prague Shakespeare Company, which shaped my appreciation for different styles and techniques, as well as introduced me to a community of exciting young artists who are already positioning themselves to be the future of this industry.​​

​

The thing I pride myself on most, however, is my aptitude in partnering with playwrights and directors on new projects for theater and film. Experiences like the following solidified in me the importance of collaboration, communication, and experimentation in the rehearsal room; tenets I try to uphold in every process I am lucky enough to be a part of. Recent collaborations include:

• I collaborated with Writer Ally Sass and Directors Erica Terpening-Romeo and Jamey Miller to originate the role of Avery in the exciting and masterful new play Incels and Other Myths, portraying him in both the Boston and New York productions. This play changed the course of my life and work, showing the caliber of art that is possible with a visionary playwright, an exceptional creative team, and a uniquely dedicated cast.

• I am also a frequent collaborator of up-and-coming director Dylan Avillanoza, for whom I co-directed his first short film "Just a Gig." 

• My newest collaboration came in the form of Twelve Elephants, a new play which premiered this past summer at The Tank, an NYC playhouse for new and exciting works. The playwright, a multi-hyphenate genius of the stage named Megan Higley, collaborated with me to create a short, yet impactful run of this short and impactful play. She wrote the play with her and me in mind, creating a special and intimate show that will not be our last.
