Simon Fenton is an actor of exceptional ability who produced an outstanding performance for IRDP as Lee, the lead part in James Payne's Shiver Breathing (winner of the Woolwich Young Radio Playwrights' Competition in 1995). His stage performance of a villain's son at the Cottesloe, Royal National Theatre, sent shivers down the spines of the entire audience.

Simon trained at Corona Academy and at the Ravenscourt Theatre School in London.

He has worked in television, film, theatre and radio.
