Headshot by Nile Scott Studios
Cameron Patrick Ward was born in the city of smiles itself, Worcester, MA. Throughout his childhood being a Leo, he loved to be in the spotlight, having the idea to create an indoor knee hockey arena in his house just so he could make his parents watch him do something.
Cameron is a professional actor who is a graduate from Dean College in Franklin, MA. At Dean, he has been seen in such productions as Radium Girls, Our Town, Scapino!, & Shakespeare's Twelfth Night on Dean College's Main Stage and Performing Arts Studio as well as musically in Disney's Beauty & The Beast at the Hanover Theatre in Worcester. He was nominated for the Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship at the Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival for his work in Scapino! and made it to the semi-finals in that competition. Since graduation, Cameron has continued his work not only in the theatre but in the realm of amusement parks, performing at well-known Florida venues such as Universal Studios in Orlando, Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, and currently back up north at The Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum in Boston, MA.
Cameron's goals are to get paid to professionally perform on the stage as well as ultimately be able to direct and teach young artists how to pursue their creative aspirations in a theatre facility of his own.
WHAT'S NEW?
