Luke Argles

Luke has been an avid participant since the early 1980s and enjoys all types of roles. He is well known at TWC for his portrayal of comic characters. In addition to the Theatre, Luke is passionate about films and has been involved in shooting a number of short films and adverts. Luke loves to play football, tennis and cricket, although he admits that he is not a particularly gifted sportsman.

Luke studied at Coventry University from 1996 where he was founder and president of the Drama Society until he graduated in 1999 and returned to TWC immediately.
