Rory Adam

Rory Adam is a classically trained Scottish-Irish actor from Glasgow and a graduate of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. His screen credits include SMOGGIE QUEENS (dir. Andrew Chaplin) and SHETLAND Season 10 (dir. Ruth Paxton) for the BBC, with further television work in development.

Raised through adversity and the Scottish care system, Rory found joy in acting from a young age. He brings intensity, emotional depth, and contradiction to his performances - a fusion of vulnerability and power that anchors his presence. His life experience taught him to find laughter in hardship and purpose in pain, forging an instinct for truth that runs through his life & work.
