MY BIO IN BRIEF
Born and raised in Canberra, Australia, Brendan Kelly was schooled in a wash of private and public schools. While in high school he noticed a lot of classes that didn't approve of his "back-chatting" and just one that encouraged it: the class of Dramatic studies. He developed a love and deep passion for learning all aspects of performance and ever seeking the truthful performances actors strive for.
Straight out of college Brendan was accepted into the Canberra Academy of Dramatic Art to study a Certificate III in Performance (Acting) and further to complete an Advanced Diploma there. The Academy provided the teaching and professional tutors that shaped Brendan into a better analytical actor and extended his passion for learning the Arts. CADA tutors whiled studying include: James Scott, Doug Chapman, Clare Moss, Rochelle Whyte, Andy Minh Trieu, Nicky Tyndale-Biscoe, Tamzin Nugent, Hannah Cormick, Elizabeth Scott.
