ERIC CHEUNG
RESUME
Objective
I'd like to continue to have diverse career experiences. This had meant several things over the years: performance styles (stand-up, sketch, radio/TV broadcasting, film, theatre), accents (particularly various regions and classes in the UK, but I'm a quick study with other world regions), and tones ("Eric Cheung shows incredible versatility; leaping between heavy and light-hearted roles in the blink of an eye." --Danielle Rosvally's review of "Yellow Face” for New England Theatre Geek and "The aforementioned Cheung tackle[s] numerous characters with such assurance and success that you'd almost think the cast was three times larger than it is." -Killian Melloy, EdgeMediaNetwork Boston also for “Yellow Face.”).
