Warren Demontague is a theatre-trained thespian actor with a checkered
and mysterious past. His origins seem to change with every story he
tells, but the common threads indicate he came from a small English
town called Wainscotting. Born with a natural talent for the craft
of acting, Warren came to the states after some minor success in
all-fabricated road-show productions of Shakespeare and a brief run on
a BBC radio drama, that ended promptly when "scandal" revealed his
true identity as a puppet. This traumatic career event soured the
Ape, and some suggest it was the first trigger for his relationship
with substance abuse and vice, a trait he has become known for.
Warren has been involved in every possible fringe of the
fabricated-American's roles in popular culture, as well as a few
unpopular ones. He has worked in children's theatre, biblical
productions, summer stock, nature documentaries, experimental film,
soft-core porn, exploitation films, American and British television,
and appears on the cutting-room floors of several eclectic movies from
our counterculture. Warren is best known for appearances in many British cult films of the 60s and 70s, ranging from all-puppet exploitation and horror (some of them with fellow actor Frederick Blah) to the early works of Mike
Leigh, John Boorman and Mike Hodges. Rumors of his social interaction
with many of Swinging London's bad-boy elite as something of a "token
puppet" abound -- from his fabled breakup with Twiggy Lawson to his
week-long binges with David Hemmings and Michael Caine.
Currently Warren is involved in a dramatic breakup with his on-again/off-again partner of ten years, former "Miss New Hampshire 1982," Maggie Demontague - a human trophy wife of questionable morals and even more questionable breasts. Separated for over six months, Warren is near bankruptcy and living with former sitcom co-star Greg the Bunny. Fresh from his latest stint at recovery from alchoholism, Warren has placed much of his personal angst into a screenplay entitled, "Postcards from the Shitstorm" (working title) which he is currently producing (with the help of his
agent, Pal Friendlies) into an independent feature. Meanwhile, he makes a few bucks doing "Greg the Bunny" parodies for the IFC.

Who I'd like to meet:
Someone who enjoys the finer things in life. An aged wine, a good book, rubber sheets. Be funny, intelligent, open to new experiences. Must be an animal lover. Must be financially secure and looking for an encounter of the "NSA" variety. 420 friendly a plus. Amputees not only welcome, but encouraged.
