Jonno Roberts人物介绍

Jonno Roberts has been acting in the US since arriving from New Zealand in 1999. He has become a popular performer on stage as well as screen, performing throughout the US and Europe.

He rapidly gained a reputation for hard-hitting performances in a number of productions that have been acknowledged as American theatre landmarks, including the hit New York production of Tracey Letts\' \"BUG\" (he replaced Michael Shannon in the lead role); as Eilif in Janos Szasz\' devastating \"Mother Courage\" at the American Repertory Theatre; as Edmund the Bastard to Stacy Keach\'s \"King Lear\" at the Goodman Theatre, Chicago; and in notorious Catalan director Calixto Bieito\'s sole American production - \"Camino Real\", also at the Goodman.

He was profiled as a notable artist by the National Endowment for the Arts.

Before moving to the US, he was best known in New Zealand as a comedian, and can still be occasionally seen performing at the legendary LA venue Largo, alongside longtime friend and comedy partner Rhys Darby.

Jonno received a Masters degree from the Institute for Advanced Theatre Training at Harvard University, and from the Moscow Arts Theatre School.
