His Career

Acting on TV

Before he was even a teenager, Shane Lyons acted in a local movie. This movie was so good that it was shown at the Sundance Film Festival! When he was twelve years old, he got a big role on Nickelodeon's fun sketch comedy show, All That. He stayed on the show until he was 16.

Shane also appeared in an episode of the TV show Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. He played a character named Jeremy Brice in an episode called "Juvenile" in 2002. After All That, Shane decided to take a break from acting. He felt tired of going to so many auditions.
