We are
a group of actors, writers and directors, formed in November 2007
with the aim of bringing neglected plays to
a wider public. Accordingly we present semi-staged
script-in-hand readings in North London; also professional
development workshops: details below.
The
plays are rehearsed for four hours only on the afternoon of the
preceding Sunday, with a brief 'top up' session before
the performance. Notwithstanding the short rehearsal time,
we strive for the highest professional standards in all our work.
North London Actors focuses
primarily on past plays. However
some slots are devoted to new work
in development, so that writers
may have the opportunity to experience the audience response
to their writing.
We welcome legitimate approaches for work opportunities. However
anyone advertising for unpaid extras should be advised that they
are likely to be reported to Equity.
This site also includes audio excerpts
from plays by Plautus and
Beaumarchais:
further details below.
Next Production
Our next production will be The
Opposite of Show Business by Jim
Grover.
The reading will take place on Wednesday 10th June,
7.30 pm at The
Hideaway, 114 Junction Road, London N19 5LB. Click
