TIM SCHNALLE
Tim is a local arborist who has spent too much time high up in the trees, so he decided to come back down to earth and pretend to be someone else on stage. MPT needed someone who could perform almost naked, catch and throw another actor in A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Tim got the gig. We realised he had a face for radio and we've been covering him up ever since. Tim also played a giant giraffe in one of our 6 Short Play nights.
In Dracula, he plays a crusty old coastguard who spies a ship at sea in a ferocious storm.. What's on board? Where is her crew? Buy a ticket and find out.
