I’m Matas Danielius. I’m a theatre and film actor.
I was born in Lithuania during the Soviet occupation, and my desire for freedom and self-expression has been a driving force in my life. It led me to acting, which has also served as a form of therapy for me.
During my degree in Drama at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, I discovered the work of Antonin Artaud, Jerzy Grotowski, Tatsumi Hijikata, Yoshi Oida, and Michael Chekhov, which greatly influenced my performance style and shaped my personality.
Over the past decade, I have had the opportunity to work on a range of groundbreaking projects as an actor, director, producer (Useful Idiots), and writer. I have also developed a passion for entrepreneurship and am currently the co-founder of Whatnot Startup Studio and an agri-tech platform Gaorai (recently acquired by Aonic). I also serve as an advisor for KX Knowledge Exchange innovation centre and am actively involved in the Thai startup ecosystem through networking, mentoring, and lecturing at various universities and startup incubation and acceleration programs.
The actor is the athlete of the heart.

I am constantly seeking new opportunities to grow and challenge myself, and I am committed to using my talents to tell meaningful stories and make a positive impact.
With love,
