Cillian Murphy’s Drama Teacher
The 28 Days Later actor started his career in his hometown, in the city of Cork, Ireland. Pat Kiernan was the first director he worked with and was also a drama teacher to him. Cillian Murphy got his first break when he was in secondary school and took part in a drama by the Corcadorca Theatre Company.
Remembering the childhood actor, Kiernan stated Murphy was initially highly engrossed with his band Sons of Mister Green Geneshe and was doing well in it.
During an interview with the Times, Kiernan remembered, “He’d say, ‘Man, it’s great what you’re doing, I’d love to be involved.’”
The teacher and the Dark Knight Rises actor have been in touch throughout these years. Talking about their once-held conversation, the teacher recalled how Murphy was inspired by a production of A Clockwork Orange.
