Born and raised in Long Island, New York, Andrew Roth is an inspiring actor who received his Bachelor's degree in Drama at SUNY Stony Brook. He then traveled the United States where he held odd jobs in Toledo, Ohio: Roanoke, Virginia; and Los Angeles, California, to get a better understanding of the 
characters that he would hope to one day play. Andrew felt that acting was the right move for him because growing up he was always considered the class clown.
Then later in life he kept finding his way into trouble, or it seemed like it always found him.When he discovered the theater in college it showed Andrew how to focus his energy into a positive medium.I had recently met Andrew at a Film Festival, and I asked him if he would be interested in talking about his acting craft along with his latest project Z.E.R.O.
-Andrew: Tell me about Z.E.R.O? Z.E.R.O. stands for Zombie Emergency Response Operations (http://www.warofthedead.com/),the story goes like this: It's ten years after the worldwide pandemic has occurred; the dead have risen. Our government has put together several elite units to combat the dead or infected and to help protect civilians. I play Colin Gellow, an obnoxious but lovable Scotsman with an inappropriate sense of humor. In general I'm the comic relief which has been wonderful to play because I'm usually cast in dramatic roles.
-Tell me about some of the other roles you have had? Some of the characters I've played in films have been: Joe Kizzen in "Praxis" (Damaged Films), New Zealand surfer Ryan Hastings, in "3 To 5 & Glassy" (Vintage Youth Productions), Philadelphia drug lord Kevin Maze in "Lost Money" (Take Flight Entertainment), an alcoholic father in "Douglas" (Purchance To Dream Productions), and the mafia leaders violent son Tommy Lazario in "The Rise and Fall of Their American Dream" (Nash Productions).
One of my all time favorite roles was in the theatre where I played the title role of MacBeth. You can check out my website's to see some of the other characters I've played and watch clips from a few of the films as well as take a look at production companies I've had the opportunity to work with.
