Meet CHARLES TELUS
 Charles Telus, a seasoned actor, excels in diverse roles across stage and screen. Known for his collaborative spirit and adaptability, he thrives in demanding environments. His relentless energy and commitment to continuous learning make him a formidable talent in the industry. 
Tell us about you as an artist. What are you best known for and what else do you do?

With over a decade of professional acting experience, I have had the privilege of portraying a variety of roles across stage and screen. Notably, my performances as Nlolonnlo in James Town Fisherman, Mathew in Heels and Sneakers, Charles in I Heard From Heaven, and Lotan in Khutam have been widely acclaimed. My versatility is further demonstrated by my involvement in stage plays such as Blue Kiosk, W for Wahala, and Emergency Ward, as well as appearances in commercials and music videos.

Beyond acting, I am deeply invested in the power of storytelling from multiple perspectives, which has led me to explore directing and producing. My passion for film and commitment to telling meaningful stories aim to inspire and challenge audiences.

Off-screen, I am a final year student at the University of Ghana, pursuing a BSc in Administration. This academic pursuit underscores my belief in continuous learning and personal growth. In essence, I am not just an actor, but a storyteller, educator, and lifelong learner.

What's been the most fulfilling project you've worked on to date and why was it a meaningful experience?

As an actor, I have had the distinct privilege of acting in a diverse array of projects, each presenting its unique set of challenges and rewards. The experience garnered from each project has been instrumental in my professional growth and development. It would be an oversimplification to single out one project as the most fulfilling, as each has contributed significantly to my skill set and understanding.

In essence, these projects are akin to my professional offspring, and it would be unjust to favour one over the other. Each project holds a special place in my professional journey, and I hold them all in high regard.

What have you done in collaboration with Undo Redo?

As a Ghanaian, I am thrilled to share that I have reached the Global Finals of the World Monologue Games as a performer in the Endurance category. This journey has been both challenging and rewarding. I have studied numerous scripts and recorded several monologues but my entry for the World Monologue Games is my longest recorded monologue performed to date. It was exactly seven minutes and fifty-eight seconds. I recall the exhaustion post-recording, a testament to the effort invested.

The Regional Finals presented a unique challenge. Despite performing the same monologue, I found myself making different decisions, altering line deliveries, and adapting my performance. The experience, while demanding, was enriching and the unwavering support I received from my family, friends and dedicated fans has been instrumental in my journey to the Global Finals. In truth, their encouragement and faith in my abilities have not only bolstered my confidence but also fueled my determination to excel.

As I look forward to the Global Finals, I am filled with anticipation and excitement. This opportunity is not just a privilege, but also a platform for growth and exploration in my acting journey.

What's on the horizon for you? Tell us about your plans for the next few projects / years?

I believe the future holds a lot of uncertainties, my past experiences have shown that I often surpass my expectations. There have been numerous instances where I have achieved more than I initially set out to do.

Currently, I am in the pre-production phase of a film project. However, I prefer to maintain a level of discretion about the specifics at this stage.

I am always open to new opportunities in film production and eagerly anticipate the diverse experiences and learning these opportunities will undoubtedly bring. My journey thus far has taught me to embrace the unpredictable nature of the future, and I look forward to seeing where it leads.
