Job: PAID(£200) "I Remain" - Female Actress Required!
About the job:
***CASTING CALL FOR MANCHESTER BASED ACTORS ***
Looking for 3x actors for a one-act play to be produced as part of the Greater Manchester Fringe Festival this year in September!
‘I Remain,’ is a drama based on the true story of Harry Hayes who fought and died in the First World War.
The play follows the story of Will, Harry’s great, great, grandson, who is a rebellious teenager struggling to come to terms with his demons. Whilst staying at his Grans to escape the troubles he faces at home, he stumbles across a box of old photos. He discovers a picture of a soldier, Harry Hayes. Along with the photo Will finds a stack of old letters, written by Harry whilst in the trenches in 1916.
Will becomes absorbed into these letters and Harry is once again brought to life through the words of the past.
The play is a look at the struggles of mental health and finding solace in the little things that we least expect by discovering the powerful connection of our forgotten ancestors.
