Bryson McBain was born in Toronto, Canada and grew up in the small-town atmosphere of nearby Streetsville. After high school he took a series of acting classes with Sears & Switzer in Toronto that helped ignite his love of the art. Bryson's audition for the acting program at Seneca College went so well the phone was ringing by the time he got home, and he was offered admission to the program the same day. His acting teachers consistently note Bryson's collaborative approach to his work. He takes the time to connect with his fellow actors to make the whole piece the best it can be.
