About Stephen Mangan
Stephen Mangan is an acclaimed British actor and writer whose career spans iconic television comedies and major dramatic productions. A graduate of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, he first earned widespread recognition as the eccentric anaesthetist Guy Secretan in the Channel 4 sitcom Green Wing. He has since become a fixture of British television, starring as Sean Lincoln alongside Matt LeBlanc in Episodes and as Nathan Stern in the celebrated BBC legal drama The Split. His diverse filmography includes the Niki Lauda biopic Rush and voicing the title character in Postman Pat: The Movie.
Beyond his television success in shows like I’m Alan Partridge, Dirk Gently, and Houdini and Doyle, Stephen is an accomplished stage performer. He received a Tony Award nomination for his performance in The Norman Conquests and earned critical praise for his role in Jeeves and Wooster in Perfect Nonsense, which won the Olivier Award for Best New Comedy in 2014. Since 2018, he has expanded his profile as a presenter, hosting Artist of the Year on Sky Arts and co-presenting the BBC’s 2020 Children In Need broadcast.
A prolific creative force, Stephen has co-written and starred in the contemporary comedies Hang Ups and Bliss, while also establishing himself as a successful children’s author with titles such as The Fart that Changed the World. His ability to navigate high-stakes drama and sharp satire reflects a unique range that makes him an engaging choice for events. Audiences book him for his charismatic delivery, vast experience in the creative arts, and his reputation as one of the UK’s most recognisable and versatile talents.
