MATTHEW HARRISON Matthew Harrison is an actor/writer. Born and raised in Montreal, Matthew is a graduate of Concordia University in political philosophy. On a whim, he jumped into the arts with Montreal’s theatre company: Spontaneous Productions. Taking his new career more seriously, he became a writing assistant to playwright Frederick Douglas Ward who helped sponsor Matthew’s schooling at New York's prestigious Neighborhood Playhouse Theater School. After the two year intensive training, Matthew was hired by the National Theater of the Performing Arts and toured the United States performing in classical theater. Two years of working with regional theaters landed him in Seattle playing Hamlet at the Washington Shakespeare Festival. Matthew made the short trip north to Vancouver to profit from its film and television industry. He has continued working in theater in Vancouver and has appeared with many companies and in many roles including Stanley Kowalski in A streetcar Named Desire, as Max in Bent, Marc Antony in Julius Caesar, and several roles with the Western Theatre Conspiracy. Matthew’s most recent stage credit was as the lead in The Usual Suspects, which he co-wrote and directed. He has primarily been acting on screen. Lead roles in features include Thirteen Ghosts, Romeo Must Die, and The House Next Door. Leads in television movies include Miracle of the Cards and The Linda McCartney Story (as Mick Jagger).
