Bio

Oshen Aoun is a Lebanese-Canadian actor, creator and musician. He is
passionate about using different mediums to tell stories, whether it be on
stage, on screen or in music. Pursuing the constant deepening of his process,
Oshen finds fulfillment as an actor by diving into as many different worldviews
as possible – thus, exploring the complexities of the human experience.

During his time at the National Theatre School of Canada, Oshen has had the
honor of working with incredible theatre artists from across the country
including Jessica B. Hill, Quincy Armorer, Graeme Somerville, Marla
Mclean, Alisa Palmer, Ann-Marie McDonald, Nancy Benjamin, Tim
Welham, Rebecca Harper, Thomas Morgan Jones, and many more.

It is there that he had the pleasure of portraying a wide range of characters,
including the title role in Richard III, Osip in Krista Jackson’s production of
The Government Inspector, and Mr. Rochester in Jillian Keiley’s production
of Jane Eyre.

Oshen is also a percussionist, centering around the drum kit and the African
Djembe, and is one of the rare Duduk (woodwind) players in Canada. He is
also trained in both armed and unarmed stage combat under the guidance of
Anita Nitolly.
