Hello,
my name is Paul Barrois (pronounced: BEAR-whaw)
Originally from Seattle, Washington, I have been acting since the age of six after seeing a marionette show of Barbar, the Elephant at my local library.
My love affair with theatre began with the theatre building itself; the footlights, the proscenium arch and the grand red curtains. This culminated in me graduating with degrees in both, acting and scenic design from the University of Idaho.
While completing my degrees, I made my professional debut at the Idaho Repertory Theatre as Hortensio in The Taming of the Shrew directed by Gary Armganac. Shortly after graduating college, I made the move to Los Angeles.
Theatrically, I have worked multiple seasons with the Livermore Shakespeare Festival and Will Geer’s Theatricum Botanicum.
In 2018, I combined my passions for theatre and graphic design, to open Stagegrams.com, an e-commerce site where I design and sell greeting cards for opening night, closing night & every occasion in-between.
I’ve performed in some incredible venues and played some amazing parts, however my favorite roles continue to be that of, son, brother, guncle, and boyfriend. I am a proud member of Actor’s Equity & SAG-AFTRA. My dream is to perform in a film adaptation of Shakespeare.
