You’ll hear about the strained relationship with his real family, the challenges of finding his self-identity, and how he has arrived to a place of acceptance.
“I think doing Shakespeare challenged me as an actor because it wasn't as easy as just playing a boy next door. It wasn't it was a lot more simple, a lot more context, and a lot of dialogue.”
— Percy Brown
