Scott Lowell/Ted Schmidt #21 ~ Because he's coming to London
 Scott's Bio Scott Lowell is best known for his role as “Ted Schmidt” in Showtime’s popular and critically acclaimed Queer As Folk for which he was twice nominated for a Prism Award. The groundbreaking and provocative series originally ran in the U.S from 2000 –2005 and is currently airing in countries all over the world. Scott was born in Denver, Colorado and raised in the suburbs of New Haven, Connecticut. He majored in theater at Connecticut College and also studied acting at the National Theatre Institute (he was fortunate to study at both schools with the legendary Morris Carnovsky). He shortly moved to Chicago where over the course of a decade, he immersed himself in the local theater scene, including performances at the famed Steppenwolf and Goodman. He also landed his first TV role in Chicago on Early Edition. Scott moved to Los Angeles in 1998 and quickly found himself busy in a number of successful commercial campaigns, guest roles on sit-coms and a lead in a sci-fi television film. In 2000 he landed QAF and spent the next five years shuttling back and forth between LA and Toronto, Canada where the series was filmed. He also kept busy traveling around making speeches for a number of civil rights organizations (including the Human Rights Campaign) and political campaigns as well as appearing as a presenter and Host of a number of GLAAD Awards shows. Since QAF has wrapped Scott has appeared on stage at the Williamstown Theatre Festival, Berkshire Theatre Festival, Eugene O’Neill Theatre Center, A Noise Within, Pasadena Playhouse, The Furious Theatre Company, Artists Repertory Theatre (Portland,OR), in a number of independent films and on the television series Bones where he has appeared as “Dr. Douglas Filmore” in multiple episodes as well as many other series (CSI, Castle, CSI:NY,NCIS, Heroes, Criminal Minds, Leverage) and as various voices in the animated series American Dad. He has also been hard at work writing screenplays on his own and with his writing partner, Eddie Jemison as well as developing ideas for television and the web including the series “Adoptable” and the podcast “CharActors!”. Scott also works as a mentor for the Young Story Tellers Foundation and raising awareness for the Evan B. Donaldson Adoption Institute.

 Thank you so much Denise .. and Susanna too for her title ...!!! Hope nobody thinks we're being presumptuous to have a title celebrating Scott coming over.  It really is special .. and unlike Gale, we get advanced warning so that we can make plans!  __________________

No, this is great! It's good we're celebrating this because people across the pond will finally get to see him. Debs, I hope you get to him in meet person so I can experience that second hand excitement.

The Guardian (UK press) had an article about it and one reader comment was along the lines of "not fussed about Bradley Cooper but would sell my granny to see Patricia Clarkson on the London stage" .. I responded with the same about Scott!!! Fortunately, my grandmothers are dead so they're not about to be sold!!!!  __________________

I hope there will be official confirmation and some more details published soon so that people can start making plans if travel is required. But I guess it's possible they'll see the Broadway run to the end before directing their attention to London.

So the last time Scott was in London, he was either 14 or 15.
