Niko Burns announces the cast for her SLT directorial debut, her own piece of original writing
It was incredibly daunting holding auditions for a play that I had written; I was unsure whether people would resonate with the script, or be willing to dedicate themselves to working on a piece of new writing. In the end, I was overwhelmed by the talent we saw over the two auditions, and I’m so thankful for everyone who came along and made the choice so difficult.
Whilst we had to call out again for one role, I’m overjoyed with the cast we have, and I’m very excited to be working with them. It’s so surreal finally being able to put faces to the characters I’ve written; I can’t wait to start bringing the show to life with such a talented group of people!
