Mark Wynter—born Terence Sidney Lewis on January 29, 1943, in Woking, Surrey—is an illustrious English singer and actor whose career has spanned over six decades.
🎶 From Teen Idol to Timeless Star
Mark’s musical journey began humbly as a boy soprano in his local church. He first found fame in the early 1960s as a charismatic teen idol, scoring nine UK hit singles—four of which cracked the Top 20. Classics like “Venus in Blue Jeans” and “Go Away Little Girl” remain enduring favorites.
🎭 A Stage & Screen Chameleon
Beyond pop charts, Mark transitioned seamlessly into theatre and film. He’s graced London’s West End and international stages in productions such as Cats, The Phantom of the Opera, South Pacific, Charlie Girl, and The King and I. Notably, he played Van Helsing in the studio version of Nosferatu and starred in long-running productions like Side By Side By Sondheim.
His screen credits include roles in Just for Fun (1963), The Haunted House of Horror (1969), Superman (1978), children’s TV, BBC Radio 2 documentaries, and hosting gigs like Once Upon a Time.
🧭 Survivor & Storyteller
A true testament to his resilience: in April 1968, Mark escaped the tragic BOAC Flight 712 accident at Heathrow, a harrowing experience that claimed five lives.
🌍 Then & Now
From chart-topping singles and West End stardom to radio presenting and television narration, Mark’s talents are vast. From 1960 through the ‘90s—and right into the 21st century—he’s remained a dynamic force on stage, studio, and screen. His music was anthologized in the 2000 “Go Away Little Girl: The Pye Anthology” and later in a comprehensive triple-CD set released in 2017.
