Fanos gets nominated in this years OFFIE’s for best actor in a supporting role for his performance as the immigration officer John Mackenzie in Can’t See For Looking, an important play exposing todays’ modern slavery. Based on five in-depth interviews with modern slavery victims rescued from domestic servitude, this shocking, fast-moving play highlights the prevalence of hidden slavery in Britain today and how many of us turn away, because of what it might cost us to confront a neighbour, friend or employer. The show opened at The Old Fire Station in Oxford on 28th September and then transferred to The Cockpit on 18th October – Anti-Slavery Day.
Fanos Xenofos gives a brilliantly subtle and sympathetic performance as John…. His character could’ve easily come off as wooden or one-note, but instead summons all the weary confliction of a man trapped in bureaucratic hell, trying to do what’s right. dailyinfo.co.uk
