LIFE’S A STAGE: Ed Cole has been performing since first appearing in a school play at Cotherstone
Ed Cole grew up in Baldersdale, where he spent most of his time cycling, playing football, and waiting for his mum to come home from rehearsals with the newly founded Castle Players. It wasn’t long before he ended up on stage himself, and by the time he reached his teenage years he was a familiar face in Castle Players, Turrets Youth Theatre and Teesdale School shows. After studying theatre at Hull University, and receiving professional actor training at the prestigious Drama Centre London, Ed co-founded Middle Child Theatre Company, in Hull. His independent work has seen him explore areas of theatre and performance beyond acting, and his most recent project is a debut venture into documentary film making, working with Gateshead-based dancer Lizzie Klotz to create the 25-minute short film Letters from Lockdown.
