Ramin, born in Iran, began his career in his hometown of Toronto, Canada singing in his own rock band, one being a tribute to his all time favourite, The Tragically Hip. Deciding to then go into theatre, he played the roles of Jay Kurntiz (LOST IN YONKERS) and Jaiden (UP ALL NIGHT) both in rep at the Annex Theatre. From there he set sail and became part of the theatre companies for the MS Carousel (Airtours) and MV Oriana (P&O Cruises).
In the last year Ramin has scored a hat-trick for Cameron Mackintosh. First he played Raoul in THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (Her Majesty’s Theatre), then Enjolras in LES MISéRABLES (Queen’s Theatre) and now is proud and excited to be playing Chris. Prior to this, Ramin has played Aladdin (Chatham Theatre), Pirate/Policeman in THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE (Regent’s Park/national tour), Pirate King in THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE (Theatre Royal, Bath), Artie Green and understudy Joe Gillis in SUNSET BOULEVARD (national tour), Feuilly and understudy Marius in LES MISéRABLES (Palace Theatre).
Ramin also had the privilege to perform as Enjolras in LES MISéRABLES – A SPECIAL CONCERT at Windsor Castle to celebrate the centenary of the Entente Cordiale.
Workshops/concerts: Steve (GOING ONCE), Menelaus (HELEN OF TROY) written by Brian Johnson of AC/DC, Francisco (ZORRO - THE MUSICAL) co-written by flamenco guitarist Juan Martin, Leo Angelides (MOONSHADOW) written by Cat Stevens, Simon Zealotes (JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR, Portchester Castle), Marius (LES MISéRABLES, Broadlands, Romsey, and Powderham Castle, Exeter).
