Terry Stone

Terry Stone began his career in the early 1990s as a rave promoter, operating under the name Terry Turbo. He was instrumental in establishing major rave events such as One Nation, Garage Nation, and Rave Nation, which significantly influenced the jungle, drum and bass, and UK garage music scenes. His experiences from this period were later documented in his 2006 book, “King of Clubs.” This foundational period allowed him to develop skills in event management and public engagement, which would later prove beneficial in the entertainment industry.

Transitioning into film, Stone commenced his acting and producing career in May 2003. Early in his acting career, he appeared in British television series including “My Family” (2003), “EastEnders” (2003), and “The Bill” (2005).

Notably, his role as Detective Sergeant Andy White in the BAFTA-nominated “Rollin’ With The Nines” also marked an early significant achievement.

Beyond acting, Stone has also carved out a substantial career as a producer and director. He has produced numerous films, such as “Rollin’ with the Nines” (2006), “Shank” (2010), “Anuvahood” (2011), “Once Upon a Time in London” (2019), and “The Last Heist” (2022).
