ABOUT

I have been acting professionally for 13 years. While working and travelling both nationally and overseas, I base myself in Lyttelton, New Zealand. Now the location of the country’s third largest port, Lyttelton is also the locus point of a vibrant and diverse creative community and home to many internationally renowned painters, musicians, poets and artists.

SOLO SHOWS

 

2graves

Bobby Tops is riding on the crest of a wave, poised to take the crown at the 1978 World Professional Darts Championship. Only now he's dead. His son Jack seeks his revenge on those he believes are responsible for his father's downfall – and we're with him every step of the way as life turns him from adoring son to hard-bitten criminal.

2Graves is a gripping piece of contemporary verse which explores the terrifying dangers of violence and revenge.

Tom Trevella...demonstrates some serious skill, especially in his vocal and dialect work. He offers a controlled, charasmatic and absorbing performance...
— Erin Harrington, Theatreview
 
 

stuck up the alley

On February 9th 2009, a barman in Lyttelton got locked in an alley. Nobody knew he was there. He was there all night. And he was alone. Well, almost.

Written by Joe Bennett and performed by Tom Trevella, Stuck up the Alley tells the touching and comic story of how we behave when we’ve got nowhere to go and all night to get there.

Trevella...holds his audience captive with finely detailed, acute and ironic observations on the human condition.
— Judith Paviell, Nelson Daily Mail
