INTRODUCTION |
Welcome to the home page of James Bryce, actor, musician and
writer, where you can find details of James' wide talents and
varied career in music and drama.
James assures
his friends that he does sleep, though you would hardly guess
it from his CV. Constantly in demand for vocal work, he
also has dozens of TV and film appearances to complement his
life in theatre - a life which in addition to acting includes
writing and directing.
Then there is
the musical output, covering special compositions, theatre
music, and albums of songs.
Add in
dramatic scripts and other writings, and there you have
it. Click on the links above for the life of James
Bryce. |

HEAR JAMES' VOICE |
An example of
James's voice work can be heard here
(music and lyrics by James Bryce).
If you visit the Tam O' Shanter Experience
in Alloway, Ayrshire,
you will hear James
declaiming Tam O'Shanter to luscious audio-visuals.
The
story of poisoner Madeleine Smith is one on which
James is something of an authority, and on the
most curious
murder website you can hear a 50-minute retelling of
the story by James himself. |
And for the under-sixes,
Zingalong occasionally appears on CBeebies, for which James wrote the
theme music and the Zing song, and arranged the songs
in each episode
