Actor: Paul Bazely

 

Introduction:
I have known Paul for more years than either of us would care to admit. Way back in 1989 I was working for an actors’ co-operative agency by the name of Inter-City Casting in Manchester. Paul, fresh out of drama school, was one of the actors “on the books”. He was impressive even then; keen, intense, immensely talented despite his youth, and with that indescribable something, spark perhaps(?) which is the mark of someone you know will be successful in whatever field they choose.
I stayed with Inter-City for just over 2 and a half years during which time Paul blossomed remarkably and our friendship became set in stone and endures to this day. This page is intended to be a tribute to him, to his work, and to our friendship. Please take time to visit the links and watch the videos and if you would like to comment or to pass on a message do feel free to use the ‘leave a reply’ box at the bottom of the page.
I should stress at this point that I am not Paul’s agent. All his professional work is handled by Scott Marshall, telephone: +44 (0)20 7637 4623. Please contact them directly on any professional matter.
