Home Profile Samuel Byres

Samuel Byres

Sam, born and currently living in Sydney after spending much of his childhood in the snowy mountains of Switzerland, is an actor-turned-singer. Sam’s recent performance credits range from university films and TV, primarily ‘Home and Away’, to musical roles ranging from Danny Zuko, King Triton and Officer Lockstock. 

His more historic credits include various dance eisteddfods and performances, primarily dancing as a part of school/state competitions. Growing up obsessed with the snow and the visual arts, his sudden and very late change of direction into the performing arts left him driven to catch up to speed with his fellow graduates, bringing his best energy and commitment to every single performance opportunity.

His passion for all things performing keeps him optimistic and enthusiastic to be the best performer he can be, and to be continually improving. Sam always looks to learn everything that he can from those he is lucky enough to work alongside, whether it be on the stage or on the slopes.
