An award-winning stage actor, Jones won a Laurence Olivier Award for his performance in the West End comedy "The Play What I Wrote," directed by Kenneth Branagh; he reprised his role in the Tony-nominated Broadway production of the play. His work in London's West End also includes Simon McBurney's production of "Measure for Measure" and, more recently, "Parlour Song" and "Every Good Boy Deserves Favour."
