Christopher Michael Jo Marsh is an English Actor, born in London, England. He was educated at Ashmole Academy in North London, and studied Acting at University of Hertfordshire in Hatfield, England. Along with Acting, he also studied Literature and Film, and he was a member of the University's drama society. After graduating from University, Christopher furthered his training in Lee Strasberg technique with The Actors Centre in London. Following his initial studies, along with a fascination for complex characters and their stories, he would proceed to develop his own approach over the years to accommodate this intrigue.
Notable performances in fringe plays include Willy Russell's "Stags and Hens" (2012) and the new comedy play "The Remains of George" (2014). He is a former member of Chickenshed Theatre Company, based in North London, appearing in a variety of the theatre company's productions, including Debbie Tucker Green's "Dirty Butterfly" (2015) and Dario Fo's "Trumpets and Raspberries" (2017).
After a few bit part roles on screen, early on in developing his career, Christopher began to pursue more demanding roles over time. He landed the supporting role of Will Cosgrove in the television miniseries Today's Detectives (2014) for Timetunnel Media, followed by Time Traveller (2014) for Red Matter Productions, where he played a ruthless and eccentric dictator, Axel Quintin. Through these projects, he began a close working relationship with writer-director Connor Chadwick.
He came to notably play Nathaniel Job in the television series Waterside (2013) (appearing from 2017-2020), for Red Matter Productions. For this role, Christopher consulted closely with Connor Chadwick and the project's creative team to drastically alter Nathaniel's appearance from season to season, from a lowly scientist to imposing figure, to show the progression of the character's descent into madness and power, morphing into a morally conflicted figure of whom would be a far cry from his former humble self. During filming, he arranged to isolate himself on occasion, to deeply focus on Nathaniel's inner conflicts with family life, identity and to investigate the character's impending loneliness.
His first major supporting role in a feature film was in Here Comes the Duke, his first collaboration with writer-director Christopher Beech, in the role of Louie. Filming took place in Manchester, England, in 2021. To gain an understanding of the reality of this character's eccentric lifestyle as a struggling Rockstar, engulfed in anxiety, paranoia, and a drug problem, he engaged with the works of Hunter S. Thompson, particularly reading "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" (1971) in preparation, and would write lyrics for Louie's band during filming, write poetry, paint, and listen to bands such as The Velvet Underground and Jefferson Airplane, among others.
In 2022, Christopher lent his voice to the role of James Moriarty for Overton Audios' audiobook adaptations of "Sherlock Holmes", by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Following this, Christopher's next project was the short film "Try-Ad" (2022), written and directed by Tania-Morgan Smith, in the role of Paul Burton, a father struggling to come to terms with his son's autism. This short film explores the realities of autism, and how stigmas of the disorder can be tackled. It had its premiere at Cambridge Junction Arts Centre in Cambridge, England. He later took on a smaller role in the short film "Me, Not You" (2023), a film exploring domestic violence.
In June 2025, after some time off to focus on other interests, he announced that he would return to acting in a new project from Christopher Beech.
