Stage Fright

Written By : Lynn Howes

Starring : Abi Titmuss, Alex Barclay and Andrew Macbean

Edited By : Ross Burman

Directed By : Emma Taylor

Music By : Francesco Quadrarupolo

A savagely funny satire on celebrity and theatre that garnered 5 star reviews at its world premiere. Stage Fright charts the struggle for supremacy between three actors appearing in a play together; old friends Peter and Charles, and Geraldine, the young and vulnerable actress they have befriended. As opening night approaches, it becomes apparent that Geraldine is not who she appears to be, and the friends must fight to salvage their pride, their identity and their reputations in this thought-provoking tragicomedy.

Stage Fright was originally performed at The Canal Cafe Theatre in 2010, directed by Emma Taylor. 

Running Time : 1 hour 11 minutes

DIARY OF A MADMAN

http://www.wirelesstheatrecompany.co.uk/index.php?option=com_jotloader&Itemid=15&cid=2&id=136&download=Diary_Of_A_Madman.mp3

Written By : Nicolai Gogol

Starring : Matthew Jure

Edited By : Ross Burman

Set in St Petersburg at the time of the Czar, Gogol’s black comedy sees the clerk Poprishchin sharpening endless quills for his boss while fantasising wildly about the boss’s daughter. In the insane bureaucratic hierarchy of 19th century Russia, rung after rung stretches above and minion after minion competes below with our poor protagonist whose life is empty of everything but obsessive work and ambition. With surreal wit and darkly absurd humour (dogs, noses and Spain all loom large in Poprishchin’s slide into delusion), this loser’s Hamlet explores the gulf between who we are and who we dream we might be. Matthew Jure is an award-winning actor whose critically acclaimed roles have included the amnesiac man in arthouse film ‘Undertow’, obsessive-destructive mathematician Septimus Hodge in Tom Stoppard’s ‘Arcadia’ and the title role in ‘Macbeth’. He has been nominated for 5 awards and has won 3: Best Newcomer (‘BIRSt’, BBC-SRA Awards), Best Actor in a Short Film (‘Undertow’, New York International Independent Film Festival) and Best Actor in a Feature Film (‘Starlight & Superfish’, Michigan Blue Water Film Festival).
