Tom McCamus

He subsequently landed a small role in a version of Antigone staged by the local Theatre London's Young Company, and went on to attend the University of Windsor's school of dramatic art.

[5] He received further praise when he performed triple duty during the 1998 edition of the festival, acting as Marcus Brutus in Julius Caesar, Don John in Much Ado About Nothing, and one of the tramps in Waiting for Godot.

[4] He garnered positive reviews for his role as a mental patient in the historical drama Beautiful Dreamers, before earning wide acclaim as struggling actor Henry Adler in David Wellington's 1993 film I Love a Man in Uniform.

[10] McCamus has been nominated for the Genie Award on two occasions since, for Wellington's Long Day's Journey into Night (1996), in which he reprised his stage role,[6] and for the Oscar-nominated The Sweet Hereafter (1997), directed by Atom Egoyan.

Although McCamus proved sufficiently popular that he appeared in every episode of the first season, something that was not originally planned, he quit the show to star as Richard III and Mack the Knife at the Stratford Festival.
