Stephen Smith (he/him)

Actor, Producer

Stephen is the Artistic Director of Threedumb Theatre (@3dumbtheatre), a four-time Off West End Award-winning theatre company from the United Kingdom. Under which, he has self-produced many of his own acting opportunities, including his solo shows Dog/Actor and One Man Poe, which have both toured nationally and internationally; visiting Dubai, Norway, Malaysia, Italy and USA.

A huge fan of the late Roger Corman / Vincent Price’s Poe-cycle when a child, Stephen reignited his love of classical horror stories during the pandemic by creating online renditions of Poe’s work via Facebook Live. When the theatres reopened, he combined four of Poe’s most popular pieces in a solo show and named the extravaganza One Man Poe.

First performed in 2021 at Watford Palace Theatre, One Man Poe has had multiple runs in London, on tour in the UK and internationally in Dubai and Off-Broadway.

More recently, the show sold-out its entire run at the 2024 and 2025 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where it also won the Spookies Award for ‘Best Horror Solo Show’ and The Derek Award for ‘Best Overall Show’.
