Roles Details

Title

Laura

Content

A widow who is bringing two kids up on her own after her husband passed away. It rolls around to Christmas time and Laura is really struggling. She's usually good at putting on a front but when she finds herself alone, putting up the Christmas decorations, she breaks down. Her husband is able to have a final conversation with her, which he utilises to tell her how proud he is of her, make playful jokes like he used to when he was with her, and express how much he misses and loves her. Laura begins by enduring a rollercoaster of emotions - anger, sadness, frustration, nostalgia and more. We really want to see a dynamic range of emotions and nail the relatability of a couple in love and a couple separated and grieving.

Note: Should have a Yorkshire accent so you appear local to the town.

Application Instructions:
