Ivan Persson
FAKE SHEMP
Hailing from the flat plains of Skåne, Sweden, Ivan discovered his love for musical theatre through amateur theatre productions. This passion led him to further his education at the renowned Urdang Academy in London. Since then, Ivan has taken on a variety of exciting roles, including the Minstrel in Something Rotten, Al Deluca in A Chorus Line, and the understudy for Bert in Mary Poppins. He's also appeared in Pretty Woman, Kinky Boots and played Vittorio Vidal in Sweet Charity.
In addition to musical theatre, Ivan has worked as a singer and performer on luxury cruises in the Caribbean and as a show artist on stages around the world.
He loves horror movies—but for him, it's really all about the snacks!
