Tom Farinazzo

Tom has been performing since the age of three, first stepping on stage during his family’s annual Easter Talent Show in Victoria. From that moment, his passion for acting has been a defining part of his life.

Growing up as the youngest child in a large military family, Tom took a different path from tradition and followed his creative instincts. At Narrabundah College in Canberra, he immersed himself in Double Drama, with a highlight being his role as Cedric in Puffs (Or: Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic). His performance was recognised with a nomination for Best Youth Actor in a Featured Role in a Play at the Canberra Area Theatre Awards.

Guided by a love for honest and truthful storytelling, Tom moved directly from High School to NIDA, where in 2025 he undertook the Diploma of Stage and Screen Performance. Tom is excited to continue honing his craft and to bring compelling stories to life on both stage and screen.
