Sidney John Kean was born on October 1 1950 in London, UK.

It was in the Reps and National Tours that he learn't the art of "deliberately staying there, watching and listening to other performers". It is often said that the best Actors are the ones that listen... Sidney is a past master at this art. He has superb comic timing as well as magnetic stage presence. He is also a breeze to work with! Sidney has numerous credits to his CV, has been performing professionally all his life and has excelled at theatrical roles as diverse as Agatha Christie to Shakespeare, lighthearted comedy to dark tragedy, experimental performance art to pantomime, musical Theatre to farce, serious television and film drama to Children's Theatre. His work has led to him travelling extensively nationally and globally and has worked with perhaps some of the finest Actors and Directors of his generation including Rod Steiger and Sir Lawrence Olivier.
