WE are seeking a versatile ensemble of actors to portray various characters in their upcoming May production of 'Quiz' by James Graham.
2003. Army Major Charles Ingram, his wife, and a coughing accomplice are convicted for cheating on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? The evidence is damning. The nation is gripped by the sheer audacity of the plot to snatch the £1,000,000 jackpot. But were they really guilty? It's up to the audience to decide.
'Quiz' by James Graham is the gripping play, exploring the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire coughing scandal. The play was also adapted into a limited series by ITV in 2020.
Every actor, except those playing Charles & Diana, will take on different roles throughout the performance.
Auditions are on Tuesday 4th and Wednesday 5th February, 19:30 at Leitheatre’ club rooms.
Please email info@leitheatre.com if you are interested in auditioning and more details about the play and characters will be sent to you.
