John Sessions

John Sessions was a British actor, comedian and impressionist whose work moved between improvisation, satire and dramatic performance. He trained at RADA in the late 1970s and became known to television audiences through Whose Line Is It Anyway? and the voices he supplied for Spitting Image.

Sessions co-created and appeared in Stella Street, which placed impersonations of famous performers in an ordinary suburban setting. His theatre work included the role of Daniel in Kevin Elyot’s My Night with Reg at the Royal Court and in the West End, and William Boyd’s Longing at Hampstead Theatre. He died in 2020.
