ABOUT TENORS UNLIMITED:
Scott Cision
Born and raised in Chicago, USA, Scott studied Engineering and Communications at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, but it's fair to say that he's been singing since birth. After a few summer seasons in the US, his first Broadway audition took him abroad to Germany where he starred in musicals such as Grease (Danny), Rent (understudy Mark and Roger) and Saturday Night Fever (Frank Junior and understudy Monty). After a call from London's West End, Scott began his life in the UK. His first show was Notre Dame de Paris (as Phoebus and understudy Gringoire), followed by The Witches of Eastwick (as Joe and understudy Darryl Van Horne). Shortly thereafter Tenors Unlimited was born. Although American, Scott has developed a keen interest in cricket and often opens the bowling for his Sunday side. Additionally a passion for cooking complements his never-ending search for good food and great wine.
Born in Sutton Coldfield, Paul, the bass baritone of the group, first discovered his love of music singing in the local church choir and joined National Youth Choir of Great Britain. He studied voice at the Birmingham Conservatoire and embarked on a career in opera performing the role of 'Sarastro' in Mozart's Magic Flute on a tour of the USA after graduating. He has performed with opera companies and ensembles all over Europe, Japan and the USA. While singing in Turandot in the Netherlands, he heard that Tenors Unlimited were looking for a third member. When not singing or playing cricket with Scott and Jem, he enjoys cooking at his home in Surrey.
Jem Sharples
Having trained privately and at The Guildhall School of Music and Drama, his roles in theatre include Alex Dillingham in 'Aspects of Love' (national tour), creating the role of Jesus/The Man in 'Whistle Down The Wind' (Everyman Theatre, Cheltenham), PT Barnum in Barnum (Guinness Theatre, Dublin), Young Scrooge in 'Scrooge' opposite the late Anthony Newley (national tour).
