A Role To Die For Tickets
From Olivier Award winner Derek Bond comes a razor-sharp new comedy that takes you undercover behind the scenes of a blockbuster casting call where the real drama is off script. When things go hilariously wrong, it’s clear this mission needs more than a martini to fix. Shaken? Definitely. Stirred? Into total chaos. Don’t miss this wickedly funny limited-run show at the Marylebone Theatre.
About A Role To Die For
One casting director with a license to kill a blockbuster, if she gets it wrong. The show follows casting director Deborah as she’s about to announce the next face of the world’s most legendary spy franchise. But things take a turn for the double-oh-no when the chosen actor suddenly withdraws the day before the big reveal. With a new mission on her hands, Deborah faces an impossible choice: stick to the sleek, suited formula the world expects, or dare to let the next generation redefine a global icon?
