Born in Dublin, Sean Power moved to Canada as a youngster and was
acting in his high school in Toronto before becoming one of the
youngest candidates to be accepted by the National Theater School of
Canada. Six months after graduating he was on stage at the Stratford
Ontario Shakespeare season and consequently appeared in numerous
theatrical productions around Canada. Moving to New York he won acclaim
for his work with the La Mama Theater Company and then returned to
Ireland for some years,appearing in the soap opera 'Fair City' and
again garnering positive reviews for his stage work. In 2005 he settled
in London and in early 2006 took over the lead role from Woody

all his illustrious career on stage throughout the world,to the bulk of
British television audiences he is Marty,the patient co-writer in the
hit sitcom 'Lead Balloon'.
