Andrew trained at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and is currently based in New York City. In 2013 he premiered Tectonic Plates by Jonathan McGrath in Sulamaniyah, Iraqi Kurdistan, where he also ran acting and creative writing classes. In 2016, Andrew worked in dozens of refugee camps across five countries in Europe with the Flying Seagull Project, using his skills as a professional clown and musician to bring circus, magic and music to thousands of children there. Since moving to NYC in January 2017, he has lent his voice to the statue of Robert Burns in Central Park as part of the Talking Statues installation, and played Puck and Cassio in Shakespeare & Company’s 2018 productions of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Othello, before making his Off-Broadway debut as Renton in a six-month run of Trainspotting Live at the Roy Arias Stages.
