Fragments of an Artist: The Cast and Crew

We are delighted to announce the cast and crew for 'Fragments of an Artist', performing for one night only at The Harrison Pub, Kings Cross. The show features an ensemble of four incredible performers in different combinations to share four new pieces from Absent Theatre's playwright in residence, Eleanor Rodda and realised by Absent Theatre's artistic director, Amy Gunn.

Ryan Wichert first worked with Absent Theatre in 'Old Rabbis in the Sky' in March, playing Greek. Since then he has featured in the September production of 'Lost/Faith/Art'. We are thrilled to collaborate with Ryan for a third time on this new show and eagerly anticpate working with him again.

Rachel Eireann has been with Absent Theatre since its launch in January 2012 with 'Lost/Faith/Art'. Since then she has performed in 'Old Rabbis in the Sky' and with director Amy Gunn's sister company, Plain Sight. To continue working with Rachel is a sheer pleasure and we are so happy to embark upon another project with her.

Julius De Mattos returns after his performance of Deacon in 'Old Rabbis in the Sky'. Since working with him in March, we've been determined to cast Julius in another Absent project. We are delighted to finally work out mutual scheduling clashes and work with this fantastic actor again!

Danielle McNally first performed with Absent Theatre this September in 'Lost/Faith/Art'. To have her back so quickly is a joy and we look forward to exploring this more conventional performance with such a talented and intelligent actress.

In addition to a stunning line up onstage, we are working with two amazing talents from 'Old Rabbis in the Sky'.

Callum Jackson provided the design work for 'Old Rabbis in the Sky', creating our publicity material and programmes. His work for 'Fragments of an Artist' coincides with the launch of our new logo, another example of his work with Absent Theatre.

Mariana Gorey returns as stage manager after her work on 'Old Rabbis in the Sky'. Our previous productions have been so small we have not used a stage manager so this is our first opportunity to ask Mariana back. We look forward to working with her again!

'Fragments of an Artist' is on at The Harrison Pub at Kings Cross on Sunday 9th December. Tickets are £5 and the show begins at 7:30pm.
