DAD’S ARMY CASTING
Due to a cast member having to withdraw from the production we are now looking to recast the role of Private Walker.
This is a wonderful comic role in this much loved British Comedy. We are looking for an actor, playing age 25-45 to take part in our October 2024 production. Joe Walker is one of the ‘younger’ members of the platoon.
He describes himself as a wholesale supplier, but he is actually a black market spiv who sees the war as a chance to make quite a bit of cash for himself, selling supplies that are hard to get in the shops like whisky, tea, chocolate, knicker elastic…
Although he is technically a criminal, he is kind-hearted and helps the platoon in any way he can. By far the most street-wise, sharp and quick-witted of the bunch, his craftiness gets Mainwaring – and indeed, the whole platoon – out of more than a few sticky situations.
Rehearsals are Mondays and Thursdays evenings in Harleston running through August to the production dates at the end of October 2024. If you would like to be involved in this entertaining production email the director Sara Curtis at curtissara155@gmail.com or phone on 07899740166.
