High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Stephen Rea (born Graham Rea; 31 October 1946) is an Irish actor who was nominated for an Academy Award for his lead performance as Fergus in the 1992 film The Crying Game. Rea was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, the son of a bus driver. One of four children in a working-class Presbyterian family, he attended Belfast High School and the Queen's University of Belfast, taking a degree in English. Rea trained at the Abbey Theatre School in Dublin. In the late 1970s, he acted in the Focus Company in Dublin with Gabriel Byrne and Colm Meaney. During the broadcasting ban on Sinn Fein imposed by Margaret Thatcher's government, in order to cut the 'oxygen of publicity', it was interpreted that Sinn Fein members could not be heard making statements expressing the views of Sinn Fein, so Rea was one of many actors contacted to provide an actor's voice to get around that problem.
