We are casting talented, confident and engaging performers for a series of immersive murder mystery weekend productions.

These productions combine scripted drama, character interaction, comedy and audience participation, with performers bringing larger-than-life characters and gripping mysteries to life across a full weekend experience.

We are looking for actors who are comfortable performing to an audience, improvising, interacting in character and working as part of an ensemble. Strong characterisation, comic timing and the ability to think on your feet are particularly valued.

The productions take place in hotel and event settings, with performances taking place throughout the weekend. Actors should be confident maintaining character both during formal performances and in more informal, interactive moments with guests.

Ideal performers:

• Strong acting and characterisation skills

• Confident, outgoing and personable

• Comfortable with audience interaction and improvisation

• Good comic timing and stage presence

• Reliable, professional and able to work collaboratively

• Experience in immersive theatre, murder mystery, dinner theatre or interactive performance is welcomed but not essential

This is an exciting opportunity for performers who enjoy character-driven comedy, live theatre and creating memorable experiences for an audience.

Fee is set at £250 for the weekend. Total hours 16.

Travel, shared accomodation (2 persons to a room) & half board meals are included.

Paid rehearsal in Liverpool at NMW for 2 hours.

Title

DIANE BLACKWELL – Music Lawyer

Content

Diane Blackwell is highly educated, intelligent and exceptionally sharp. A successful music lawyer and former wife of the band's manager, Diane is polished, professional and completely in control of herself.

She has history with the manager and unfortunately, that history has followed her into the present. Since remarrying a woman, Diane has found herself the target of unwanted attention and harassment from her ex-husband. What initially appears to be an uncomfortable personal situation takes a far more sinister turn when Diane discovers just how far his behaviour has gone.

Diane is nobody's fool. She is articulate, composed and capable of standing her ground, even when under pressure.

Seeking: A strong, intelligent performer with excellent dialogue delivery and a commanding presence. The actor should be able to portray Diane's professionalism and composure while allowing glimpses of vulnerability and anger beneath the surface.
