Veteran roots play actor Cleve 'Chu Chu' Warren is dead.



The 46-year-old actor died late evening while undergoing treatment for an undetermined illness at the St Ann's Bay Hospital.



Warren's colleague and co-worker of 19 years Mytania Samuels of the comedic duo Kafinal and Sambo said Warren complained of feeling dizzy.



He was taken to the hospital where he died while undergoing treatment.



Earlier this year, Warren started his own production company called Laf Land Production, which released on DVD the play, Lan Saga.



Warren boasted over 20 years on-stage and was well known for playing the role of a feisty yet likeable woman called 'Chu Chu' in the roots play Passa Passa among a host of other popular Jamaican production.
