Myself and @danieldirects have been developing something for the last two years, rooted in the power of the arts — how performance, storytelling, and creativity can give young people voice, build confidence, and create a space where they’re seen, heard, and challenged to grow.
More to come soon. 🎭

Golf is a HARD SPORT.
6 pars, 1 birdie, 6 bogies, 1 double, and FOUR 8’s. Getting back slowly but that was a rude awakening. 😭😭
There really is no place like a golf course in the sun 🏌️⛳️☀️

Final selfie as Paul/Ben! Said goodbye to @murderplayuk and what a hoot it was! A lot of fun was had! Thanks @originaltheatrecompany for stretching my muscles further once again. Always grateful. No more dressing up as a policeman/vicar/very dead person. Onto the next! ❤️
“Many first-time parents feel unprepared for the enormity of welcoming a new baby… While every parent wants to give their child the best possible start in life, not all families have the financial means to do so,” said dad and actor Max Bowden.
Those first few weeks a new baby can be expensive and overwhelming.
Baby Bundles give parents the essentials they need, so they can focus on their baby, not survival.
Every baby deserves the strongest start. 💚

🎭 ACTING MASTERCLASS WITH MAX BOWDEN 🎭
Join acclaimed stage & screen actor Max Bowden for an unmissable online session exploring one of the most powerful tools in performance: STAKES.
Best known for his gripping portrayal of Ben Mitchell in EastEnders, along with standout roles in Waterloo Road, Casualty, and on stage in Birdsong and Midnight Cowboy: A New Musical, Max brings raw honesty and intensity to every role, and now he’s sharing that process with you.
🔥 In this session, you’ll explore:
– How stakes transform behaviour and emotional truth
– Why urgency creates compelling performance
– How to unlock unpredictability using the same monologue as a live experiment
💡 “It’s not about playing the emotion, it’s about understanding what happens if you don’t get what you want.”
– Christopher Nolan to Gary Oldman
This workshop dives into the core questions every actor must answer:
What do you stand to lose? What happens if you fail?
📅 11th April
🕙 10AM BST
💻 Online at iampro.com
Whether you’re an experienced actor or just starting out, this is your chance to elevate your craft.
