Hello! I'm George, a professional actor and musician from a small, little Yorkshire town called Penistone. Here's a whistle-stop tour of what I do for a living:

In 2018, I graduated from Guildford School of Acting with a BA (Hons) Degree in Acting, training in both stage and screen.  I have also been fortunate enough to have performed at The Globe and toured twice with the Young Shakespeare Company in 'Macbeth' (2018) and 'Romeo & Juliet' (2019). I played Scott in 'Steal Suffering' which fortunately had its London premiere just before COVID hit, back in February 2020. Then in April 2022, I finished touring 'Ruby and the Vinyl' with The John Godber Company playing the role of Tom. I am currently the voice of Royal Mail's winter campaign that is streaming across Spotify. In January 2023, I played the role of Les in The John Godber Company's tour of Bouncers until April 2023.

 

I became a professional musician with my first gig in Wakefield at the age of 15 and since then, I have been privileged enough to go on to play in bars and restaurants in some of the greatest places on Earth, such as New York, Paris and Yorkshire. I regularly gig at venues across London including the Four Seasons Hotel, The Dorchester Hotel and a number of Browns Brasserie and Bar restaurants.

In 2021, I, very proudly, built my own home studio and do a lot of my voiceover work from there, along with going in-house to recording studios across the UK.  Nicknamed 'The Studio Under The Stairs,' I've recorded commercials and audiobooks for companies such as Royal Mail, NHS, Ocado and Audible from my little studio at home!

THE
99 SECOND
PLAYLIST

The 99 Second Playlist is a project that I created directly in response to the COVID-pandemic. When live music and theatre was banned, I immediately wanted to create something that would provide work for musicians/artists. Therefore, two days after the Prime Minister announced theatres and live music venues had to close, I started trialling Season 1 of 'The 99 Second Playlist.’

 

One video every week. The catch? Every single video must be EXACTLY 99 seconds.

 

Not only is this quite a challenge for musicians, but in a world where people flick through social media feeds so quickly, you’ve got a very limited amount of time to capture someone’s attention. The goal is to create projects that musicians and audiences can enjoy in equal measure.

The 99 Second Playlist (Introduction)
Just The Two of Us - Charlie Beaven & Jamie Sandersfield (The 99 Second Playlist)
Places We Won't Walk - George Reid (The 99 Second Playlist)
Bee Gees vs Jamiroquai MASHUP! (The 99 Second Playlist)
I Will Survive - FUNK Quartet (The 99 Second Playlist)
