Mark Kimsey
Member from 1986 to 2024
Bio
As a child I watched a number of plays and pantomimes at St Lawrence and was eager to join the group when the opportunity arose. Following my brother and sister in treading the boards, my first role was as Tom Jenkins in Scrooge. Since then I have been fortunate enough to play Hans Christian Andersen, Will Mossip and many others. As a young man I played romantic roles, eventually, in real life, marrying one of my leading ladies !!!!!
