He helped establish the Equity Performers Against Racism group, developed to circumvent Equity rules preventing political campaigning, in which he was helped by a number of white actors. He was Vice President of Equity between 1994 and 1996. In addition to appearing with most of the major theatre companies he notched up numerous television performances. One of his most famous roles was as the dying werewolf Roy in Being Human, la confrérie de l'étrange (2008).
