My House

Canadian born actor and singer Alex Gaumond moved from Montreal to the UK in 1997 to study at the celebrated Guildford School of Acting where he achieved a 1st class BA (Hons).

After completing his degree at GSA in 2000, early career highlights included Miss Saigon (Manila, Asian and UK tours), The Full Monty (Prince Of Wales Theatre and UK tour), Scrooge (London Palladium and cast recording with Tommy Steele), Sunday In The Park With George (Wyndham’s Theatre, winner of 5 Olivier Awards) and Guys and Dolls (Donmar Warehouse UK tour).

In 2009 his career took to new levels when he was cast by Ben Elton, Brian May and Roger Taylor to play the lead role of Galileo in their hit musical We Will Rock You, which was being taken on a UK tour for the first time. Gaumond performed 7 shows a week for 7 months, playing at the Palace Theatre in Manchester, the Sunderland Empire, the Birmingham Hippodrome and the Bristol Hippodrome.

In 2009 Gaumond was also cast to play the male lead (Emmett) in the original UK production of Legally Blonde at the Savoy Theatre, starring opposite Sheridan Smith as Elle Woods.  His work in the show earned him a nomination for 'Best Actor in a Musical' at the WhatsOnStage Awards and the Olivier Awards in 2011.  The production itself received critical acclaim and went on to win 'Best Musical' in all the major awards that year.  An album of the Original London Cast, featuring Alex, was recorded live under the reputed theatre label First Night Records.

Following his highly acclaimed run of almost two years in Legally Blonde, Alex made a return to We Will Rock You, this time at the Dominion Theatre (winner of the Olivier Audience Award 2011 for best long-running show), in which he starred for 6 months and was nominated for a WhatsOnStage Award 2012 for 'Best Takeover in a Role'.

In 2012 Alex starred as Jesus in a new production of Jesus Christ Superstar for Ljubljana Festival in Slovenia and released his first single, Here I Am (available worldwide from most download sites), which he launched with a performance at West End Live in Trafalgar Square in front of 20,000 people, as one of only three recording artists invited to perform their solo material amongst all the West End shows featured in the programme.

In 2013 he played Alberto Beddini in Top Hat at the Aldwych Theatre.  Whilst in the show he attended the Olivier Awards, which saw the production win for 'Best New Musical', 'Best Choreography' and 'Best Costume Design'.

In November 2014, Alex joined the cast of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels at the Savoy Theatre, replacing Rufus Hound in the role of Freddy Benson, the iconic conman portrayed by Steve Martin in the original movie version.
