In 2014 Carroll attended the Buffon/Le Jeu at L'Ecole Phillipe Gaulier in Paris. He also played in Shakespeare's Measure for Measure, Strindberg's A Dream-play, and As You Like It. He is represented by Auckland Actors and has played as Thomas Klopper in the award-winning staging of The Book of Everything in 2015/2016 at the Silo Theatre. Over these years, Carroll has performed in Alice In Wonderland, The Angry Brigade, Twelfth Night, and has toured the country with Indian Ink's The Elephant Thief, and in their subsequent production of Welcome To The Murder House, playing Thomas Edison.[3][4][5] Carroll has won the Sam Wanamaker Award for Best Newcomer for his performance as Peter Quince in A Midsummer Night's Dream in SGCNZ's 2009 National University of Otago Sheilah Winn Shakespeare Festival. From that, he was chosen to be one of 48 out of 5500 to attend SGCNZ's NSSP and was then selected as one of 24 members of SGCNZ Young Shakespeare Company 2010.
