About Andreas
Andreas Vedvik is a Norwegian actor educated at Westerdals in 2021. He made his debut in Stine Indergård’s production NO-WAY, directed by Rudolf Terland Bjørnerem.
Together with Tyrone Douglas, he staged the trilogy A Working Class Hero, A Middle Class Hero, and The Dreamer over a two-year period. He has also appeared in NRK’s Lillestad and Discovery+’s Basic Bitch Season 3.
Acting became a passion for him after attending a folk high school in Sunnhordaland, particularly through his role as Helge Ombo in The Man Who Loved Yngve. Despite the pandemic, he has participated in several short films, workshops, and seminars.
Andreas thrives in challenging roles that depict characters on the fringes of society—misunderstood, shame-ridden, lonely, or isolated. He has also performed theater internationally, admires the Vinge/Müller theater company, is a fan of the film Into the Wild, and has recently developed an interest in electronic organ music.
