Author, Creator & Director
Tim Curry
Tim Curry is the author and filmmaker behind Allegory, leading the adaptation of his original novel for television. An archaeology graduate and widely travelled storyteller, he draws on history, place and lived experience to shape its atmospheric world.
His filmmaking includes an independent documentary examining the human cost of pollution from the ILVA steelworks in Taranto, Italy, which was broadcast on local television. The experience also inspired his published short story, 6 Hours in Taranto, featured in the American anthology Journeys. His work extends to online interviews during the Covid pandemic with prominent public figures, including George Galloway.
Alongside directing and shooting independent films, Tim has taught film and cinema and worked with students on their own productions. He brings Allegory its original creative vision, practical filmmaking experience and a sustained interest in the forces that shape people’s lives.
Lead Actor & Original Music
Sam Sherpa-Moore
Sam Sherpa-Moore is an emerging actor and musician whose contribution to Allegory brings together screen performance, original music and a personal connection to Nepal.
His television credits include portraying Tenzing Norgay in Doctor Who: Joy to the World (2024). The role carried particular personal significance: the pioneering mountaineer was his great-great-uncle. Sam’s Sherpa heritage and childhood trek to Everest Base Camp, aged just ten, give him a longstanding connection to the Himalayan landscape that forms Allegory’s setting.
Alongside his role as the series’ lead actor, Sam contributes an original song recorded in Los Angeles with a string orchestra for its soundtrack. His involvement across acting and music makes him central to both the series’ on-screen storytelling and its musical identity.
