It is lovely to have had such a lot of interest in the play to be able to choose such a great crowd to work with - in my last post I joked about crowds of people - in the end for the female parts alone I had sixteen women apply!
The cast has a number of regulars but is also notable for a great number of people who are either brand new to Arena Theatre, or with whom I have worked myself only once or twice, and it's great to see an influx of new talent to the company.
