Casting shenanigans all done and storyboard complete

I will be honest, I was actually quite anxious at the prospect of holding auditions particularly because like a stubborn mule I had turned down the offer of supervision and help. (No offence Brett. It was entirely a practical decision not a personal one!)

However, I need not have worried because it went really well; a staggering 22 responses to the call outs, I don’t think I get 22 cards on my birthday (!) so I was really pleased and ultimately we have cast three great actors to play the three main roles in ‘Replacement’

Additionally, Lights has been cast this week; had a really fun audition evening on Wednesday (with Brett in tow this time) mainly playing with torches in the Peter Lanyon building but we’ve narrowed it down to an actress named Carrie who was ridiculously convincing at pretending a sprite bottle was a lampshade. (Make do and mend when you haven’t got the right props to hand.)

Also in further news the ‘Replacement’ storyboard is done and I really do feel like an industry professional with all these late nights and a diet solely made up of things out of cans. (Baked Beans with brown toast, baked beans with white toast…baked beans on a bagel…the bagel was the most interesting day!)
