Actor Christopher Lee-Power, born in Rock Ferry and raised in a family with deep Liverpool roots, is looking ahead to an exceptionally busy and exciting year, with major projects across film, theatre, narration, and public speaking.

A Michael Myers sequel

Christopher has recently completed filming the sequel The Death of Michael Myers, reprising his role as Dr Langford for JJL Productions, following his appearance in The Hunt for Michael Myers.

Speaking about returning to the role, Christopher said:

“It was exciting to be asked back to reprise my role as Dr Langford. Although the nights were cold, I loved being back in front of the camera and I’m really looking forward to the premiere later this year.”

Christopher trained at Richmond Drama School and RADA, and has spoken openly about having a difficult early experience with education. Despite those challenges, his passion for acting began in childhood and has grown into a career spanning classical theatre, film, and voice work, including working with BAFTA director Christopher Swann. 

He has performed a wide range of classical roles on stage, including Oberon, Claudius, Marc Antony, Polixenes, and Macbeth, providing what he describes as “a vital grounding for any actor.”

Theatre is a wonderful place

“Theatre is a wonderful place,” Christopher explains.

“You take an audience on a journey together – 90 minutes to two hours of shared storytelling. If something goes wrong, you continue. That discipline stays with you.”

In 2026, Christopher had the privilege of touring in On the Banks of the Royal Blue Mersey, a historic comedy celebrating Everton Football Club and the move to Bramley-Moore Dock. He performed as the Narrator in the production, written by Paul Daley and Steve Bird.

“I didn’t know much about football when I was cast,” he admits,

“But I learned a great deal during rehearsals and performances. The cast were fantastic, and it was a joy to be part of such a historic and heartfelt production.”

Alongside acting, Christopher has a deep passion for history and narration. In 2026, he narrated the children’s audiobook The Adventures of Roger the Royal Runaway by Gill McCabe.

“Bringing that story to life was a beautiful experience,” he said. “To be trusted with a children’s story like that is a real privilege.”

Podcasts, interviews, talks

Christopher has also been busy sharing his story through podcasts, interviews, and live talks, discussing both his career and personal journey. He says:

“I love talking to an audience and sharing my life story. It’s a privilege to inspire people through my experiences.”

He is represented by CELEB Agents and is proudly part of The Great British Speakers Bureau, which supports him as a professional speaker.

Reflecting on the differences between stage and screen, Christopher added:

“Film and theatre are very different mediums. On camera, less really is more. The camera never lies – it catches everything. You still need truth, whether you’re playing a villain, a hero, or a larger-than-life character.”

Under the Mersey Moon and Porridge

Looking ahead, Christopher will once again reprise his role as Kenny in Under the Mersey Moon, performing on the main stage at Floral Pavilion, New Brighton. Written by Jimmy Rae and Peter Davies, the production premiered last year and returns due to popular demand.

He will also appear in Porridge, based on the classic BBC television series, playing Grout and Dr Jessel, performed at Rainhill Village Hall, in Rainhill, Merseyside, England — a vibrant village near Liverpool.

Upcoming performance dates

Under the Mersey Moon – 14th & 15th February at Floral Pavilion, New Brighton

Porridge – 19th, 20th & 21st March at Rainhill Village Hall, Rainhill, Merseyside

With film premieres, theatre performances, podcast interviews, and speaking engagements, 2026 is shaping up to be a landmark year for Christopher Lee-Power.

“I’m looking forward to more film, television, theatre, and speaking opportunities,” he says.

“Whether it’s on stage, on screen, or in front of an audience, it’s about staying grounded, sharing truthfully, and inspiring people through storytelling.”
