Film and Television

Allin Kempthorne trained at the Circus Space circus school in many performance disciplines including juggling, unicycling, mask and mime, clowning, character work and object manipulation. He followed this with a more conventional drama training at The Method Studio in London, plus extensive private tuition in Magic and Conjuring at the Las Vegas McBride's Magic and Mystery School.
This unique mix of training and experience means Allin is much in demand for his circus, magic and mime skills in film, commercials and TV productions, as an actor and performer in his own right, plus also doubling for other actors when a scene demands the character to use such skills.
