John Waters
Darcy Proudman
John Waters was born in London, England in 1948; the middle of five children of Scottish actor, Russell Waters. He first faced a live audience as a singer and bass player with 60's R&R Band "The Riots" before travelling to Australia and landing the lead role of Claude in Sydney's 1969 production of the landmark rock musical Hair.
This led to an acting career on stage, film and television that elevated him to his current status as Australia’s most versatile leading man. From the brooding Sgt. McKellar of ABC TV’s “Rush” in the 70’s, through the Australian film boom that followed (“End Play”, “Summerfield”; “Breaker Morant”; amongst others) and on to the mini-series of the 80’s (“All the Rivers Run”; “Nancy Wake”; “Alice to Nowhere”), John has intrigued audiences with his diversity. Since collecting Australia’s highest accolade as the Australian Film Institute’s Best Actor Award in 1988 for “Boulevarde of Broken Dreams”, John has re-embraced musical theatre as Professor Higgins in “My Fair Lady”, and in productions of “The Hunting of the Snark” for Mike Batt and “A Little Night Music” for the Sydney
Theatre Company. He won unanimous acclaim in the role of Pontius Pilate in the concert version of “Jesus Christ Superstar”. He left Superstar to tour nationally with his brilliantly observed role of John Lennon
