Alexander Holloway: The Sword, The Stage and The Hustle
Manage episode 270660180 series 2782493
Stage combat coordinator Alexander grew up in the very multicultural Birmingham in the UK. His journey started at college training as an actor. His acting teacher's best mate was a guy called Scott Adkins (who also went to the same college) Scott would come in fairly regularly and give talks on stunting and acting which inspired Alexander to become one. Alexander was lucky enough to get into the only drama school in the world where you can get a degree in acting and stage combat.
Alexander worked with Scott briefly on Green Street 3 as soon as he graduated and started straight into working at the East End for the Royal Opera House as a resident fighters and then fight directing for a huge company called “secret cinema”
Later he decided to visit New Zealand to "door knock" after falling in love with the Lord of the Rings films and started hustling like he did in the UK messaging everyone in the Stunt Guild of New Zealand.
Within a year Alexander was Teaching/ choreographing for most of the training institutions for actors and theaters in New Zealand.
