My Take
Con O'Neill is exactly the sort of actor I love to spotlight, a craftsman whose roots are deep in live performance. Winning the 1988 Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Musical as Mickey in Blood Brothers is no small feat, and it speaks to a genuine triple threat who can sing and act on the most demanding stage. Coming up through the Everyman Theatre, he has built an enduring career that bridges musicals, television, and drama with real range. I trust actors forged in theatre, because the discipline shows. O'Neill carries that lived-in authenticity into everything I have seen him do.
