Nick Karimi - Actor. Romeo, Juliette & Dyslexia... in Waitrose.

The Jerry Hyde Podcast

Scottish Iranian actor Nick Karimi is known for his work in Macbeth, An Oak Tree, and Everyman at the National Theatre in London and War Horse in London's West End. He's appeared nationally in The Arabian Nights, A Tale of Two Cities, Lardo, The Hairy Ape, Titus Andronicus, The Magic Flute, Damascus Aleppo, Game of Life, I Was a Beautiful Day, Outward Bound, The Fear of Breathing, The Double, The Pearlfisher, Nova Scotia, Mother Courage and her Children, Mountain Language, The Dead Fiddler, Emperor Jones, Amy Means Necessary, and The Kite Runner.
Raised in Edinburgh, it was whilst training at Rose Bruford Drama School that he discovered he was dyslexic, and this forms part of the discussion on today's show with this remarkable man who's gifted with the ability to light up any room and regale people with his infectious warmth and spirit - it's always a joy for me to spend time with Nick and I hope some of that rubs off on you too.
