Ben Bishop is a Chicago actor most notably known for bringing to life the beloved character of Kinger from The Amazing Digital Circus as the live action version Grant Best.
You might have seen Ben on Chicago PD (co-star) and soon you can see him in the western feature Dogwood (starring Eric Roberts), fulfilling Ben’s lifelong dream of being a cowboy as a funny, cocky gambler.
Up next Ben will be starring in Big Spooky House with director Jerry Gonzalez who directed Ben in his award winning role in Hamster In My Head, where he got to utilize his slapstick, physical comedy chops portraying a robot body operated by a Hamster.
Ben trained at Second City, The Annoyance, and The Forge. Originally studying theatre at Arkansas State University, he can perform Shakespeare, capable of singing, and adequate at dancing. He excels at an Irish accent and is consistently holding back a Southern one that can be unleashed at a moment’s notice.
