Considering himself a "late bloomer," Dave Tomczyk didn't go to college until age 26. Eventually he earned a master's degree and enjoyed a successful career as a statistician. Blooming late again, it was in 2010 that Dave began acting, when on his first film audition he won the lead role of Roger, a man tormented by his past in the short drama, En Passant (2010). Since then he's enjoyed success in a string of independent short films and a couple of feature length movies, one currently in production. Dave also performed voice-over work for a live action film dubbed into English and two animated features.In the Sci-Fi noir, Six Planets of the Song (2012), Dave played a grieving sailor willing to sacrifice himself to a siren in the hopes of rejoining his drowned wife. This film debuted on the Indy Mogul YouTube network of independent filmmakers and was a featured short film at the 2012 Cucalorus Film Festival. The Basement (2012) is a short film of suspense centering on a man, a locked basement, and a twelve year old boy, in which Dave took on the creepy role of an obsessed pedophile. Kidnapping Ellen (2013), a feature length comedy in production, allows Dave a change of pace to play a warm, yet zany, offbeat father searching for his daughter.Dave played characters (in unlisted films) as varied as a ruthless crime boss in Routine Process (2010), a suspicious and unpredictable painter in If Walls Could Talk (2011), an understanding and wise boss in Nights (2011), a reluctant rogue hero after the apocalypse in The Fall (2011), a framed white collar worker who fearfully resorts to murder in Forged (2012), and a psychopathic horror icon relaxing at home playing video games in Pleasant Nightmares (2011).Dave also enjoys occasional theater work, including his two favorite roles as the fast talking and flirtatious Persian peddler, Ali Hakim, in Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical, "Oklahoma!," and displaying the tormented treachery of Judas Iscariot in "The Passion of the King." Both played to local audiences in his current home of Wilmington, NC, and received favorable reviews in the Wilmington-Star News. Hide
