Casting - Why we cast our Characters

Adrian Doyle - We needed someone for this role who was an older male and could pull of the original 'Harry Lime' 1940s Thriller 'look' - gladly Lauren's Dad, Alan, kindly volunteered to do so. We thought that he definitely fitted the role and really worked well in the costume and also the acting. With Alan being an older male he worked in the role and gave the voyeuristic nature in his acting that we were hoping for. 


Beth Maplestone - We wanted somebody in this role who was a young, pretty girl that could also be seen to have a 'dark side', as the name suggests. Kaya kindly volunteered herself to play the part and we thought we worked very well. Her kind, timid nature and pretty face allows the audience to really connect with the character, but when she steals the money from the till for herself the audience then see her in a different light - becoming the 'Femme Fatale'.
