Pip Pearce
- Actor
Pip Pearce is an English actor, director, and musician.
His career began in 2011, when, at the age of 10, he was cast by Sir Nicholas Hytner in the National Theatre and NT Live production 'Travelling Light'. Within a few months, Pip had become an original cast member of Carrie Cracknell's multi award-winning 'A Doll's House' at the Young Vic, playing Jon. In 2013, he was cast and directed by Sir Kenneth Branagh in 'Macbeth' - the headline production at that year's Manchester International Festival - and performed in the NT Live broadcast. 2014 saw Pip play James, one of the lead roles within the ensemble of children in Tom Harper and Hammer Horror's 'The Woman in Black: Angel of Death'. The following year, he was cast by Marvel and Disney as Iron Man in 'Avengers: Hero Up!'
In 2023, Pip graduated from Cambridge University with a double-first class degree in English and was awarded the Collins Prize. During his studies, he created 'Pip Pearce Productions' and directed his debut show, 'The Waste Land': a response to T.S. Eliot's poem on its 100th anniversary, produced in association with Faber & Faber and The Eliot Estate. Since then, Pip has formed a close collaborative relationship with 'one of the most exciting playwrights of this generation', working as a director on a series of award-winning, sell-out shows with Tom Foreman Productions. Most recently, 'Boiler Room Six' was awarded 'Best Overall Show' at the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe and received a highly exclusive 'Sell Out Laurel' from the festival, before embarking on an international tour in 2025.
Since graduating, Pip has worked extensively as an actor in both film and theatre and was recognized with the Best Actor award at the 2024 GRAFTAs. See 'Other Works' for more details.
