Duncan brings a confident, articulate voice with a grounded American tone, shaped by his roots in Oregon and refined through early years of performance experience in both the US and New Zealand. Relocating to Aotearoa, New Zealand as a teenager, Duncan’s acting journey spans from reciting Tennessee Williams as a child to performing as the Duke of Athens in A Midsummer Night’s Dream on the iconic stage of Shakespeare’s Globe in London (dir. Timothy Walker, 2013). This experience deepened his ability to deliver text with clarity, resonance, and emotional truth.
