Matt Boesenberg is an Australian TV and film actor. Matt's career began in the theatre, with his first role in the Sydney based PACT Centre for Emerging Artists production Madagaskar Lily. He then moved onto the Australian Theatre for Young People (ATYP) where he developed a passion for Shakespeare. He played the role of Banquo in Macbeth, and Ulysees in Troilus and Cressida. Matt was soon awarded a scholarship by the ATYP for his outstanding work and chose to travel to New York.
On moving to New York from Australia in 1999, Matt studied with the Atlantic Theater Company (a school started by David Mamet and William H. Macy). With renewed skills and vigour Matt returned to the ATYP for their commissioned work with Nick Enright, called Spurboard. This play was performed in conjunction with the Sydney Theatre Company and went on to tour country New South Wales.
Keen to expand his horizons Matt travelled to Oxford, England, to study with the British American Drama Academy. There he furthered his skills with Shakespeare under the guidance of teachers such as John Barton (director), Jane Lapotaire and Alan Rickman.
Upon returning to Australia, Matt continued work in theatre, including roles in productions such as "Rebel Tour", a fictionalised account of the South African rebel tours and "Prisoner of Love".
