Who is Petrice Jones?
Petrice Jones is an English actor who rose to prominence for his starring role of Tal on the YouTube Red original series Step Up: High Water.
In an interview, Jones shared that he had his heart set on becoming a preschool teacher after working in a classroom. Petrice was terrified of performance until a friend convinced Scot to give it a try (Scot would often recite lines from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.)
He then auditioned for a school musical and, as it were, caught the acting but, which he found “electrifying.” Jones performed at the 2012 London Olympic Games as an actor and acrobat during the opening ceremonies. He also appeared in the 2017 Netflix original sci-fi film iBoy as Shotgun.
In 2019, he co-produced a short film called Issac and Emma.

Petrice Jones Step Up
After been in London for four years, Petrice decided he needed to make the move to the States. At that time, he made a decision to audition for YouTube Red’s Step Up: High Water, based on the massively successful film franchise of the same name.
Luckily he got a callback and everything changed. He described it in an interview: I changed my flight, squeezed my entire life into 2 suitcases, and about 12 hours later, after a heartbreaking goodbye, I left my mother at the doorstep and was sat in a taxi on my way to a new life. I landed in L.A. with the understanding that I really may not even get this role and was ready to spend the next few years hustling to make it through the door (and breaking them down if need be). Luckily, that wasn’t the case.
