MICHAEL HURST
When it comes to acting in NZ there is very little this guy has not done.
Michael and his wife, Jennifer Ward Lealand are the definition of an acting power couple. She was even named NZ of the year in 2020.
At the time of recording this they are about to star in a new play together called “In Other Words.”
(It's on at Auckland's Q Theatre from 3-15 September)

This conversation is a small part of the Michael Hurst story.
From moving to NZ from the UK as a kid.
How he fell in love with acting and, in particular, Shakespeare.
We talk about the Hercules and Xena era which made him an international celebrity, not to mention a lot of money. So many cool stories about this era, including his recollections of working with a young Ryan Gosling. And the time he hit Hercules in the head with a sword.
Michael Hurst is an incredibly passionate and enthusiastic guy who has devoted his whole life to his craft, and it was a pleasure to pick his brains for a long form chat like this. I hope you guys like this.
