Oliver Devoti
Hi!
I'm Ollie, I'm based in Manchester, previously lived in London, raised in Newcastle and born in Birmingham, so a bit of a mix. I have a gentle Geordie/Northern accent, but am strong on a variety of accents and would consider my accent a neutral northern.
I've been cast many times from Self Tapes, including ‘The Monuments Men’, ‘Bodyguard’ and 'Coronation Street'. I’ve been a professional actor for 9 years (gosh! Time flies) and have worked in all types of production.
I also regularly teach and take workshops at a number of drama schools.
I’d love to help you with your tape, it’s also a great chance to meet other actors for me too!

I'm a former infantry soldier, having spent the majority of my time on operations as part of Close Observation Platoon, which is reconnaissance in urban environments, wearing plain clothes, having to gather intel and apprehend high value targets. I'm trained in most small arms weapons and hand-to-hand combat, which sits nicely alongside my stage combat training.
Upon leaving the army, I went to drama school at the Manchester School of Theatre (MMU) receiving my BA Hons in Acting.
Some of my recents credits include:
Macbeth - Royal Exchange Theatre
Game of Thrones - HBO
Bodyguard - World Productions
Peterloo - Thin Man Films
