Ken played our Macbeth to packed houses and thunderous ovations. We will never forget him. May flights of angels sing thee to they rest, old friend”.

Ken Lally Education

Ken was resident of Los Angeles, California. His extensive training in the world of theatre and film has taken him from the iconic settings of London’s Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre and the University of Westminster to the bustling streets of New York City, where he honed his craft at the National Shakespeare Conservatory and the London Classic Theatre School. Additionally, he holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre from St. Lawrence University, showcasing his commitment to the performing arts.

In Los Angeles, Ken diversified his skills by delving into the world of film and television under the guidance of coach Cameron Thor. His passion for the screen led to memorable roles, with two favorites being on popular TV shows. In “General Hospital,” Ken embodied the character “Greg,” a mob accountant working for the enigmatic “Sonny Corinthos.” On “Heroes,” he took on the persona of “The German,” a notorious super-villain known by this enigmatic moniker.
