“Andrew Pepper, a one off, daring to go further than you ever imagined a performer would”
– Musical Theatre Review



As Hysterium in 'A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum' at The Lido2Paris, France, 2023/4.

Andrew Pepper is a British actor, singer and “walking Dr Seuss character” (thanks, Time Out!) who works predominantly on stage.

In the winter of 2023, he made his Paris theatre debut at the legendary Théâtre du Lido in Paris, played Hysterium in the (long overdue) French premiere of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.

In 2024, he entered his villain era, playing Abanazaar in Aladdin at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre.

And in 2025, he returned to Théâtre du Lido to play Ruth in the French premiere of New York cult hit Titanique.

Andrew began his career wreaking havoc on Cherry Tree Lane in the original West End production of Mary Poppins and has since played a scarecrow, a Restoration fop, an American assassin, the Grinch, a mad vegan, a mad professor and the Mad Hatter (twice). 

He’s played Shakespeare clowns, a singing landmine, and as a pantomime Dame he’s flirted his way into the hearts of the good people of Chipping Norton. 

For the past 17 years, he’s also regularly acted, directed and dramaturged with children’s mentoring charity Scene and Heard.
