12 years ago David Atkins together with John Frost plucked Scott from relative obscurity to understudy Guy Pearce as Danny Zuko in ‘GREASE’.

It was his first ever audition. Scott spent the next 9 years forging a career as one of Australia’s leading men. Roles such as ‘Enjolras’ in ‘Les Miserables the 10th Anniversary Tour’ and replacing Hugh Jackman as ‘Gaston’ in Disney’s ‘Beauty & the Beast’ (which earned him a Mo Award nomination) have been highlights. Other theatre credits include ‘The New Rocky Horror Show’ (Paul Dainty), ‘Secret Bridesmaid’s Business’ (Playbox) and ‘The Sign of the Seahorse’ (Playbox).

Television credits include Good Morning Australia, The Midday Show, IMT, Today Show, Hey Hey It’s Saturday, Blue Heelers and Home & Away to name a few.

3 years ago, at the completion of the Secret Bridesmaid’s Business tour Scott suffered a career threatening spinal injury. After extensive rehabilitation, he returned to the stage this year, starring in David Atkins’ and IMG’s musical production of ‘The Full Monty’, and then the role of ‘George Kitteridge’ in ‘High Society’ with The Production Co.

He is lucky to be walking, happy to be working, and thankful for a comeback courtesy of David Atkins, who once again did the plucking!
