Career

Smales auditioned and gained a place to study Musical Theatre at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance.[2] He was also accepted into Royal Academy of Music, but was forced to turn his place down due to not being able to fund his place. Following that decision, he embarked on his passion for film.[3][4]

His first audition was for a film called Death Walks for first-time writer and director Spencer Hawken. The audition was for the role of Steve, the shop assistant, alongside love interest "Louise" (Lucinda Rhodes).[5]

Upon the film's completion, Smales was asked to play the character of the journalist Kevin in No Reasons. One review of the film compliments "an admirably creepy performance by Daniel Smales".[6]

Smales was born in Kingston upon Hull in East Yorkshire, where he grew up on the Orchard Park Estate. He has an older sister and an older brother. He attended the local Shaw Park Primary School, along with the local secondary school Sir Henry Cooper School. He attended Wyke Sixth Form College where he studied performing arts and information technology. Smales took a year at Hull College studying musical theatre. He left Hull to pursue his career and now resides in London.[3][4]
