What has been your best ever part and why?

Orpheus in "Eurydice" because it involved going through every emotion a character could possibly go through. Very enjoyable.

Which actor do you admire most and why?

Al Pacino, because he's a very believable actor and been in some of my favourite films such as The Godfather Part Two.

What was your favourite job or most memorable job while 'resting'?

I once tried very unsuccessfully to sell advertising space by phone. I lasted one morning better than most did. It was dire, and I hated it!

What's been your most embarrassing moment?

I once did a play called "Why Me" and had to play a very convincing woman. One night the back of my dress tore, and I was wearing very male white Y-fronts it gave the game away completely!

Ian Targett plays a young actor who gets caught up in a web of intrigue in the thriller The Woman In Black at Richmond Theatre next week.
