Tasma Walton

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tasma Walton (born 1974 in Geraldton, Western Australia) is an Australian actress.

After deferring her law degree she joined the local radio station in her home town, getting her first taste of the show-business industry. She was accepted into the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) but dropped out after 2 years because she was unsure about where she was heading.

She joined a small Sydney theatre company called the 'New Theatre' which led to guest appearances on Blue Heelers, Home and Away and Echo Point. In 1996 she auditioned for, and won the part of "Dash McKinley" in Blue Heelers - her character was introduced halfway through Season 3, after "Wayne Patterson" was killed. In the same year she made her film debut in Fistful of Flies.

To win the role of "Dash McKinley", Tasma had to audition three times. It was the second one with William McInnes ("Nick Schultz") that swung it for her. In the audition Schultz yelled at Dash and while some of the other actresses burst into tears, Tasma reacted by having a hearty good laugh!

Tasma filmed her last episodes of Blue Heelers in April 1999 and her final episode was called "The Full Circle", screened in mid 1999. Tasma stated that she was leaving the series to pursue other acting projects and to be with her boyfriend, Danny Roberts in Sydney. She has since made a guest appearance in Water Rats as well as taking roles in a number of film projects. Recently, Tasma was seen in The Secret Life Of Us. her most recent film was Little Oberon, alongside Sigrid Thornton.
