JORDAN

West End performer and past pupil of Cowbridge Comprehensive School, Jordan Davies, takes time out of his busy schedule to give Cowbridge Comprehensive School’s Performing Arts pupils a guided back stage tour. 

After achieving excellent results in Drama and Music at Cowbridge Comprehensive School, Jordan graduated from the Guildford School of Acting in 2011.Since then he has been busy with acting jobs and performing in musicals around Europe. His television credits include appearing on The Voice UK where he was a part of Team Will! Last year he appeared as Peter Pan at The Grand Theatre Blackpool.

Now, former Cowbridge Comprehensive School pupil, Jordan Davies, is appearing in Les Miserables at The Queens Theatre, London. Seen by more than 70 million people in 43 countries and in 22 languages around the globe, it is still breaking box-office records everywhere in its 30th year. Jordan always wanted to perform and believes that a combination of hard work and perseverance have got him where he is today. Performing in Les Miserables is a dream come true for him.

Despite a very busy schedule Jordan found time to show a group of Performing Arts students from Cowbridge around the Queens Theatre. Pupils were privileged to see the workings of the theatre and were able to ask questions and receive valuable information about a career in the industry.

Mrs. A Campbell (Head of Drama) and Mr. Colborne (Head of Performing Arts) commented that they were always impressed with Jordan’s desire to give something back into the school that he felt he had got so much from while being a pupil. His teachers remember his successes at Cowbridge Comprehensive School both academic and playing the lead in many memorable school musicals such as Jekyll and Hyde, Into The Woods and Little Shop of Horrors. He always wanted to perform and now he is living his dream.
