This has some coverage but doesn't appear to meet WP:NACTOR/WP:GNG or have an obvious WP:ATD. Notability is not inherited. Boleyn (talk) 19:02, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep as a stage actor. He played Macbeth in Macbeth in Newcastle . This production got two reveiws and two articles (more on one later) and while most are in the local paper, the last is in the national newspaper The Australian. He played Bassanio for Bell Shakespeare's 1999 run of The Merchant of Venice .  -  -  -  -   and so on. Played Paul in a run of Brilliant Lies from the plays debut  more at . It appears to be a second tier character so significant role question is not so certain but he does get mentioned in reviews. This run got a lot of coverage, 6 reviews listed for the debut and another 7 for Playhouse (Vic)  +1. It has more from other stops on it's tour. Was one of four actors in Murder by Misadventure at Marian Street Theatre  and it has 5 reviews listed. One of the articles mentioned above for Macbeth is Ken Longworth, Shakespeare veteran at 33, Newcastle Herald, 25 February 1993 which appears to have Walton as the primary focus. When he played alongside his wife for the first time in many years in Worst Kept Secrets the was an article  that told us about that. He played a lead and the play had multiple articles/reviews -   -  - -  .   Some additional notes, was in The Philadelphia Story at the Sydney Opera House  but I've only found two reviews (not too bad for 1986) "Two good performances, no doubt, help. There is the assured acting of Rhett Walton (only one year out of NIDA) as C.K. Dexter Haven - the Cary Grant role. He has the required eaze, naturalness and spontaneity on which the Barry charm depends." + .  Appears to play either Tybalt or Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet  which has 10 reviews listed. "Credit as well to Michael Hurst who has choreographed the most exciting duel I've ever seen on stage and to Richard Roxburgh and Rhett Walton who bring it off.".   duffbeerforme (talk) 13:43, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep as per the notable stage performances reviewed in reliable sources identified above that shows a pass of WP:NACTOR so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 23:38, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. The sources presented by Duffbeerforme show he is notable as actor. (NB-I must have missed something because I cannot see why "Notability is not inherited" is mentioned in the nominator's rationale. Is it because his wife has a page? Then, one obvious ATD would have been redirect there with a source, I suppose).- My, oh my! (Mushy Yank)  21:06, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
