Hi there, I've been classically trained, been in a number of productions most recently in a Christmas Carol, produced in York, where I played Jacob Marley. Currently in Somerset. I'm on Casting Networks and I'm really interested by the idea of a steampunk take on the story. Still have the full beard from winter, can play from 25-45. Please may I ask, is this a paid venture, expenses only or just for fun. I look to hearing from you soon. All the best Rich :-)

Hallo Richard, its profit share as per info on graphic and on our auditions page . we are a self funded (eBay and jumble sales) collaborative group in Devon. The only things we do "for fun" are our showreel shoot days (though if we didn't love what we were doing we wouldn't be doing this and half killing ourselves against local prejudices that all acting is amdram and rural people don't know what they are doing. ) could you please email on southdevonplayers@gmail.com
