Sprague started his professional acting career at the age of eighteen with his debut in summer stock at renowned Hampton Playhouse in NH. From there, his work took him to Washington, D.C., Boston, New York and ultimately Los Angeles. Along the way, he studied with Lee Strasberg, Patsy Rodenburg and The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.
In the mid-’90s, Sprague took a “part-time” job on a documentary. Twenty-five years and two Emmys Awards later, “The 25th Defense; End of An Era” & “The Other Side of The Ice“, Sprague recently returned to his first passion, acting… but not before setting some extraordinary, exploration history. In 2009, he and a small crew found and successfully navigated the Arctic’s ship-killing Northwest Passage on a 57′ trawler. His Emmy Award-winning documentary, “The Other Side of The Ice“, was the result of this five-month trip through the high Arctic.
Sprague’s acting can be seen in two upcoming independent films; “Is It A Crime” and “The Cabin or The Dissolution of a Midwestern Family in Two Scenes”.
Sprague is very happy to announce that after many email and taped interviews, self-taped auditions and general hand wringing, (Sprague was in NYC, the director and producers in London) he’s been cast in a new play in London at The Stockwell Playhouse. The Peregrine is a political thriller that reflects the tumultuous times in Argentina during the 1970s and opens at The Stockwell Playhouse the end of August. Sprague holds one of the leads and is the only American in the play. For further information about The Peregrine as well as how to secure tickets, please visit The Stockwell Playhouse’s site.
