Ben Simpson (Benny - Beanfield)

Ben is a Devon lad born and bred which is where he began his career in professional theatre at an early age. He then moved to London and performed in A Christmas Carol for the RSC when he was twelve before taking various roles in film and television including The Treasure Seekers, The Phoenix and the Carpet and The Cazalet Chronicles. Since then Ben has worked with different theatre companies around the country and extensively for Westcountry Theatre Company taking open air Shakespeare productions to local communities and audiences of all ages. He is proud of his Westcountry roots and delighted to have discovered such a gem as the Bikeshed Theatre in his home town. Ben is hence excited by the work that Particular are creating and thrilled to be performing such a fantastic script as Beanfield.
