Humphrey Bogart & Frank Sinatra lookalike Stephen Long, i was born the day Bogie died, his son was also called Stephen, i didn't know this until recently, i studied method acting at drama school for 3 yrs, and throughout i was always drawn to his style of acting, to me he was always cool,strong, and he looked deep within the character he was playing, i found that doing the bogie technique, as i called it, really helped me into character, he had fun with his characters, so do i, i believe in the character I'm playing, that way the audience will believe in the character and not see me, also my good friend Cathrine, is a double for Lauren Bacall, and when i say double its like looking at her, photo's will be posted asap.
Although I'm a method actor, I've played straight guys, tough guys, musical (Bernardo, West side Story) (the Knave of Hearts, Panto, Alice in Wonderland) Comedy roles, police men, gangsters, Soldier Kieth a leading role in award wining British short film Borderland, and i was asked how a method actor could do Shakespeare when i auditioned for Oswald in King Lea, but i got the part, iv had many roles,i was even sent as a shadow with the Manchester CID (police) for two weeks to research a detective i was playing, the top and bottom of it is, i love what i do,and do what i love.

This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship,(Casablanca), The stuff that dreams are made of, (The Maltese Falcon)..........................................................................................................How crazy, i have been asked to perform at a Frank Sinatra tribute Show, and even sing a few Sinatra numbers, well i love a challenge, and so i recorded myself singing, i will try to perfect it, but i thought i would share my progress, and i must say, i am really enjoying mixing Sinatra with Bogie, well after all, they were great buddies, i am sure and i hope they would be amused at what i am doing.
Well the progress so far with the Sinatra tribute, I now have a full show up and running and i am told that i have great potential, i have won a couple of talent competitions, and i am loving every minute of it, see more of me as Sinatra at http://www.sinatratribute.blogspot.com/ www.sinatrafrank.co.uk www.sinatrafrank.co.uk
