Thomas Henderson was born in 1952 in Jhansi, in central northern India. During his education at a city boarding school, Thomas performed in classical stage drama and cites Julius Caesar as one of his favourite plays.
Thomas and his family migrated to Australia in 1988. He settled in Melbourne and worked in industrial quality control. Thomas is now self employed in the taxi business. His talent for public speaking and his reputation as an enigmatic storyteller preceded him and he was immediately offered the part at his audition.
Thomas is perfectly cast as THE INDIAN STORYTELLER who will provide the subliminal chorus to this modern day fable.

William Morgan
as DAVID HAWTHORN (Dave)
and NIGEL
Born and bred in Melbourne, Will Morgan has been working as an actor in independent theatre and film for the last six years.
Starting out many years ago with the intention of becoming a scriptwriter, Will soon found himself on the stage rather than behind it. After discovering a love of acting, he undertook a few short courses with the VCA and performed with several theatre companies around Melbourne, before leaving for London in 2005, where he helped develop and then perform new plays for writers at Stratford Circus.
Returning to Melbourne in 2008, he has played Demetrius in Moreland Theatre Company’s performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and worked on the feature film Kin.
In 2009 Will returned his focus back to scriptwriting, taking up full time study in Professional Writing and Editing. Will has recently been dabbling in the dark side as an arts journalist on Channel 31’s Yartz, and is currently working on his first feature length stage play.
Unable to pass up the opportunity to act in Robert Gough’s premier play, Elephant will be Will’s first role for 2010!"
