Additional credits include: India in Yank! The Musical (European Premiere at Hope Mill Theatre), The 12 Tenors (China Tour), Les Misérables 20th Anniversary (Queen’s Theatre).

Luke most recently starred in the World Premiere of new musical FIVER, with book, music & lyrics by Alex James Ellison and Tom Lees, at Southwark Playhouse, for which he won a West End Wilma award for Best Performer in an Off-West End Show. He can also be seen on Channel 4's Ackley Bridge playing the role of Matthew Barnes.

Luke played Logan Carter in the 2011 and 2012 BYMT productions of Out There.
