Drew Dillon is a Northern Irish actor most recently seen in Kenneth Branaghs critically acclaimed feature film BELFAST. Other work includes Rags (Park Theatre), War Horse (West End), The Play That Goes Wrong (West End), The Playboy of The Western World (Old Vic), Borgia (Canal+), The Hollow Crown (BBC) and Hollyoaks (Channel 4).
As a songwriter, he shows himself to be among the very best talents working in the country at the moment: his songs have immediate, powerful appeal. Boldly characterised, strongly rhythmic, elegantly melodic, with a mature, complex voice in the content and style of the lyrics, he is a writer who will surely be much in demand by the best performing and recording artists. - BritishTheatre.com 2017
